First time a badger has ever helped out a hedgehog

[@footplate0]

Great project. And some cat food (tined) in the feeding chamber will keep them healthy all summer long, don't forget the water. Thanks for sharing.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you.

[@kevinronald4137]

Delightful, I really enjoyed this construction, well done.

[@indylead]

A neat little project. Got to love the "how it works" section with the stunt double :)

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@ΚΑΤΕΡΙΝΑΠΙΤΣΙΟΥ]

I really enjoy the video and it is not just a house is a designer house , it is so cute , i hope to see a hedgehog there !!!!! Love the logo a badger is helping a hedghog how cool is that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. If only badgers and hedgehogs could be friends

[@leesmart1971]

ROFL at the recreation... Fabulous.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much

[@kieronpegler5358]

that big bandsaw is bloody lovely

[@sandman2651]

Great looking project matt looks like they should enjoy using it

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. Yes I hope they like it

[@paulrowley71]

Great little project. Posh roof!

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@Thesidingsworkshop]

Nice house for our little friends 😊

[@markgoode4109]

A fun project; good to take care of our spiky friends. Thanks for sharing and best wishes to you. :)

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Mark

[@markgoode4109]

@@Badgerworkshop I must admit, I think I may have night mares after your reenactment; hopefully it will not have done any lasting damage :) Enjoy the workshop and have a great day.

[@MrJono1999]

Love the dramatic recreation, wild life photography next! Great video, keep up the good work. 🤣

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much

[@howardbecdove9780]

Brilliant mate! I may have to upsize to build one for the wombats here. Only one room required, because once the wombat gets in, and sticks it’s backside across the entrance, nothing else will get in.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Haha sounds a good plan

[@iancreese9310]

Very good project, loved the use of the old bandsaw to rip the boards down.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you.

[@SMee67]

Ha, that's awesome. You might have to make a few more if that restaurant gets any busier, or make one huge one! Fantastic job, mate, always good to see critters that are on the decline get a much deserved helping hand.👍🏽

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Bill. I could have a whole chain of restaurants

[@SMee67]

@@Badgerworkshop Yes! With your logo sign at every doors heading.👍🏽🤭 Who would have thought, a Hedgehog restaurant built by a Badger...😉

[@dianahenderson]

Couldn't help but think of Spiny Norman Dinsdale...I'm sure he would have approved of your Hedgehog House. lol Well Done on the project.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@ASCarvings]

Love the logo on the wood. Looks like a wee name plate.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. I was pleased with that bit

[@melaniehuggins6646]

Brilliant. Lovely to see it being used at the end. That was a real bonus 🦔

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much

[@Cliffepoos]

I just made a blue tit nesting box with the same copper roof idea. I may have a go at the hedgehog house too, right after I finish my bat box. You could make one of those too. Bats really need our help too. Loved seeing the box in use. Nice touch.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Sounds good. I like the bat box idea

[@jeffreykuhn1071]

Loved this one! Thank you for making and sharing.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it

[@mamashama9749]

Nice project and especially satisfying to see it being used as intended. You can use 'Miracle-Gro' on the copper to stimulate the patina much quicker than it would naturally.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. That is a good tip

[@stevehough8528]

What a lovely build, the copper roof was an excellent touch. The 'dramatic recreation' was brilliant!

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Steve

[@testifyconnor]

You’re honestly the Bob Ross of woodworking

[@Badgerworkshop]

Haha thank you very much

[@twigwoodzim]

I second this observation

[@davidhull1610]

Apart from the haircut!

[@wokohedgehogs]

It’s an amazing build, the Hedgehog’s absolutely love it. We can’t thank you enough Matt for building this for our little spiky friends. It’s so much easier to keep their “dry” food dry.

[@Badgerworkshop]

I’m so pleased you a and the hedgehogs like it

[@ChrisFranklyn]

That recreation, I'll have nightmares! Seriously though, I'd never have thought of making it predator safe.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Haha sorry to spoil your sleep.

[@keefykeef]

This is brilliant, most aesthetically pleasing hedgehog house I've ever seen!!! Love it

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much Keith

[@5656eric]

Matt, this will be one of my you tube all times favourite .... You made my day. Thank you !

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. Pleased you liked it.

[@AndyCPugh]

Nice! So good to see the hedgehog checking it out.

[@Badgerworkshop]

They seem to like it

[@azza1793]

Great little project and thanks for showing us it in use 👍

Great build, loved the demonstration of Hedgehog & Fox , Basil Brush's Cameo roll in your production.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

Brilliant video mate. Very sweet.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Mate

[@javigutierrez4318]

Amazing 👏👏👏

[@brindmusicnerd]

Loved seeing it actually being used 😍

[@Badgerworkshop]

Yes it was great to see

[@lesthiele4921]

Hi Matt, another great video, of a very interesting project, take care and keep safe mate.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Les

[@essentialhandyman]

Really enjoyd this video. I'd thought about building one of these before but my garden is bombproof and no legged animals can just get in here. But your idea of giving it to someone else to use is great.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@halken007]

nice little project Matt but should the edges of the copper plate be bent down to make the sharp edges safer

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. They are not sharp

[@EM-fh2tx]

Totally cool!

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much

[@johan5628]

Hi! Nice bukid! I made something like this a few years ago, and it works great (for Swedish hedgehogs), i recommend you to put some woodshavings inside. Gets cosy and keeps it dry!

[@MrGeroth]

Good job

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@mikecalhoun8497]

You've got a lot of that wood left over and the Hedgehogs seem to like your little restaurant so I think you should make a couple more of the for the list;e guys. I'm sure they would appreciate it. LOL

[@Badgerworkshop]

I’m sure they would

[@davidstevensasidewayslook8831]

Nice project, I made something similar but used some reclaimed cedar shingles for the roof, looks very rustic!

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@TheFirefighter56]

Nice one Matt, you are on a role lately keep it up.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you Ken

[@michellenjohn123]

Thank you Allan

[@shanekneeshaw3483]

Oh thank you I'm going to make one for my next-door he is always feeding them

[@Badgerworkshop]

Bet they will love it

[@SweSuf]

Sadly hedgehogs have become very rare where we spend part of our vacations, in southern Finland. 25 years ago there used to be a handful around, but the last 10 years or so we haven't seen any.

[@Badgerworkshop]

That is a shame. Hopefully they will come back

[@antking8847]

Lovely end product Matt - well done. I sometimes wonder about those reclaimed scaffold boards - they have some major splits in them which often look vulnerable when you are cutting them about...

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you

[@kirkwaring]

Hello Matt what a amazing project i really like all your projects you do and you have amazing content keep up the hard work

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you very much

[@c.a.g.1977]

Oooff, that hedgehog dining scene, it had me on the edge of my seat 😂 Nice one, Matt, well done. Is there a particular reason you didn't bend the copper plate around the edges of the roof, and secured them with a few copper broad headed nails? It might have looked nice?

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. Not enough material

[@sawdust58]

Hi Mat, like what you have done. Any drawing for this project please. Keep up the good work.

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. No plans sorry

[@SheyCrompton]

Loved the video. I can't find in your toolsiuse page a link for the copper sheet. Please could you direct me.

[@Badgerworkshop]

I found it on eBay I think

[@matthewsimkins]

Who are you trying to fool Matt? Badgers eat hedgehogs, this is clearly a trap to provide you with a nice afternoon snack! 😂

[@Badgerworkshop]

You got me

[@peterrowley3277]

Lovely hedgehog house loved the footage at the end. Quick question just about to buy the table saw you got I know you bought the banggood cross cut sliding mitre for your table as the sliding table that came with your saw stuck out too much. However if you had got the space would you have preferred to keep the sliding table over the banggood???

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. I think now i have it I like the mitre gauge and sled rather than a sliding table

[@rianwhitby3480]

Make a badger buffet next...

[@Laborejo]

Hello and welcome to Hedgehog Workshop. In this video I make a human house.

[@johnlewis9745]

Very nice job, but it seems a little small to me.

[@hansdegroot8549]

How do hedgehogs and badgers get along?

[@Badgerworkshop]

In real life not great

[@TurnTheHeatonNow]

Great video, lovely little bit of footage at the end as well. What handplane did you use in this video Matt?

[@Badgerworkshop]

Thank you. An Axminster low angle jack

[@markwears729]

Watching this after 2nd half of eng v Denmark to chill oit

[@Badgerworkshop]

Hope it helped

[@planethedgehog2427]

*A* hedgehog. 🦔

[@TigerCarpenter]

this is thrilling to see the hedgehogs actually knowing it's made for them I hope you didn't install the big brother CCTV cameras inside their new bungalow. soon you might see the small hedgehogs around

[@Badgerworkshop]

Yes and that was the first night they had it

[@TigerCarpenter]

@@Badgerworkshop that's really cool. I suspect you built it because you must have seen them around.
