Making a Barn Birdhouse

[@cutflower36]

You did a good job on this, its realistic looking.

[@John-uz3ho]

I notice in one of the comments, you respond that your birdhouse is more for decoration than for functionality. Glad you recognize this, as a tin roof, which has great rustic appeal, will, in hot summer months, broil the chicks inside. Also, cleanout was mentioned, which is a valid point. Likewise, ventilation holes must be provided for a viable abode for birds. Otherwise, good building technique ...

[@oxintheshop]

I got ya. But I have a friend that I do craft show with and he selling over 1000 of these each year all have a tin roof and are actually used.

[@spdd081603]

if they are to be used, how do you clean them out each season????? AWESOME JOB btw!

[@lar4305]

The roof is awesome. outstanding birdhouse.

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks

[@michaelreedy2098]

After all that great work did anyone move in

[@DallasCole]

I love the "T111" siding. It's the next level detail.

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks I think it made it look way better

[@robertcornelius3514]

Nice work. You lucked out with that metal roof.

[@jofoster2144]

Wow what a fantastic 🐦 birdhouse well done.

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks glad you like it

[@lauramarshall6376]

This is great!

[@ManCrafting]

In like Flynn. Just under the wire. I had my doubts. The birdhouse looks great.

[@oxintheshop]

Lol I was getting a little scared 😬 thanks I like it too

[@automaticprojects]

Another terrific build and video. Love all the little details that add so much authenticity.

[@oxintheshop]

thanks Mark I agree the white detail makes it look awesome

[@ladykenja2700]

- Nice job. Love the time you put in to making it look nice but how will you clean it. They become very dirty inside after a year or two. You could make another one (tee tee) & the rough edges around the opening could be somewhat of an irritant. Love the idea & finished product, though. Thanx 4 sharing.

[@TheMuzShop]

Turned out awesome Drew!! Only two more to go ....you got this!!

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks mike. I’m editing number 4 as we speak!!!

[@dutchwalters4450]

Great video, as always Drew stay healthy and happy - see you soon

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks Dutch and thanks for the support!!!!

[@frankdelagarza5433]

Looks awesome !!! Great job...

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks frank

[@MichaelKatzovitz]

I love the birdhouse, thanks for posting. If you're going to hang it for the birds, how are you going to clean it out every year?

[@oxintheshop]

I was thinking about just pulling the 7 nails out

[@helenachase5627]

Cute.

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks

[@mikevigilante8208]

Awesome build love it! How do you clean it out after each season?

[@oxintheshop]

It is mostly for decoration

[@frankingram3382]

Great video, thanks for sharing. Hey before you mount that project sand the inside edge of the bird's door before a young bird jumps up there and puts an eye out. God Bless my friend.

[@oxintheshop]

Great idea frank. Thanks for telling me and I’ll do that for sure. Have a good one

[@ninataylor2906]

Great video. Going to start one this week. Could you provide the dimensions? I would like to make one about that size also.

[@oxintheshop]

About around 15 long 16 tall and 12 wide

[@sabinerespaud1340]

Bonsoir pouvez vous nous donner le plan et les mesures des éléments et quel bois utilisé et en quelle épaisseur merci

[@FredMcIntyre]

Awesome work Drew, looks amazing! 😍👌🏻👍🏻👊🏻

[@oxintheshop]

Thanks fred

[@justsapinis9185]

Great video, but did you think about that birds will not be able to get out because the plywood is to slipery. I was thought that bird house needs to be out of rough lumber.

[@oxintheshop]

I don’t know about that either but the inside side it not as clean and nice as the painted side. That plywood usually has a good side and a rougher one

[@weslydenton9158]

Is that glue and accelerator any good over time? Does it break down? Nice vid btw ty

[@oxintheshop]

That glue is the best the cow has broken off now but it limb fell on it and the wooden cow broke the legs are still glued on

[@truly3743]

That’s awesome!! Wish this was a step by step video I’d love to make one!! The tin roof is the best part!

[@CasualBuilds]

Nice work, man! Love the goal that you set for yourself - keep crushing it!

[@oxintheshop]

Lol I’m trying editing video 4 now

[@Echo3_]

THE SUPER GLUE TRICK! @CrimsonGuitars uses this all the time. awful background music lol. you can just leave it silent, makes it more zen. :)

[@oxintheshop]

Sorry for music I like it thanks for watching and yea super glue is awesome

[@creativegirl9710]

And yet another KZbinr that didn't do his research on how to build a PROPER birdhouse. It's not just having a cute design but functionality. You have to be able to open it up and clean yearly.
