Rustic Birdhouse

Another Rustic Birdhouse. I will show u how I built this rustic outhouse style birdhouse step by step and show u the finished product...I will also be giving this actual birdhouse away to a random winner. If you win and someone sees the house and asks you where did you get that cute house you can show them the building of the house...how cool is that...
Contest will run from today May 2, 2019 until 3pm on Monday, May 6, 2019. Each name entered in the comment section will be placed on spreadsheet with a number assigned and then I will do a random number pull for the winner. Note: it's a short window so your odds could be very good at winning...Have an awesome day.
To Win this actual Birdhouse, It's Easy:
1. If you didn't like the video hit the Thumbs down button TWICE...LOL (or at at least let me know why, but don't forget if you still want it, put your name in the comment section)
2. Hit the thumbs up button if you liked the build.
3. You must enter your Name (nickname or channel name) in the Comment Section of this Video, this is key so I can put you on the list.
4. The shipping address has to be in the United States...(Sorry to all those who support me from outside the US)

It's great to see how much your channel has grew from when I first subscribed. Christmas Man

[@MarkDohring]

Thank you Christmas Man, I really appreciate your support along this journey... It's definitely a learning curve on editing, creating thumbnails that people will click on and improving sound... but I'm having fun and that's what counts, but I couldn't do it without all of you supporting me..Thank you again.

[@lindaglaze581]

I wish I would’ve found your channel 3 years ago. I’m obsessed with birdhouses. I don’t know how to make them because I’m scared of power tools. Will subscribe and be watching your channel from now on.

[@MarkDohring]

Linda thanks for watching and subscribing. I plan I building more on the channel because of all the comments. Some power tools I own I am very careful using, like my router/shaper, every time I start that thing up I think to myself is there another way to do this, lol. Again thanks for watching and have an awesome day.

[@pattysherwood7091]

Love it!

[@MarkDohring]

Thank u

[@MarkDohring]

Do u make bird houses ...

[@pattysherwood7091]

Mark Dohring my son and I made wooden frames for someone who stretched a canvas picture of a tree over them and sold them for people to sign at weddings. We made thousands. Ben also did finish carpentry, and artwork, and built kitchens. I don’t want to upset you but he died of cancer this May. I am looking at the beautiful tools and machines and the left over wood. I can’t build kitchens but I know how to do a lot of simple things. Before we are forced to sell everything I might take a year to do some fun things. I really enjoy all aspects of woodworking when I am the helper.

[@MarkDohring]

Patty, So sorry to hear about ur loss.. I’m sure u have many great memories make things with him.. or seeing his handy work. My father who I spent so much time in the shop with unexpectedly passed away Oct 21.. again so sorry u lost ur son so early in life... our prayers with be with u and ur family...have an awesome evening and if u ever want to share anything u make absolutely feel free to message me on FB I would love to see what u make .. I wish we could share picks on KZbin .. but we can’t .

[@pattysherwood7091]

Mark Dohring I am so sorry you lost your dad. I’m glad I found you. I think it would be great to share pictures on KZbin also. I told someone today, if I can make one thing, I can make a thousand. If I figure something out I will send you a picture on Facebook. Thanks for your helpful videos

great job. what part of ca. did you go to.

[@MarkDohring]

+Ed Cummins thanks for watching and we r in Santa Ana until Tuesday

[@jackwright9960]

Do we need a perch below the hole for the bird to go in

[@MarkDohring]

Not for the small birds, u can put one if u would like.

[@ArmandoGarcia-jh2vv]

You shouldn’t put screw to close to edge need at least 1” to 1 1/8 from edge

[@MarkDohring]

Thanks for watching and commenting, it would be a little tough seeing that the board it’s going into is only 3/4” wide, that only split because there was a knot right there. I used thin cabinet screws which worked perfect. I gave that one away and built myself one and that one hasn’t split and is just like the day I built it except for the weathering

[@joannmickley9089]

JoAnn Mickley love the outhouse. I would like to have a branding iron with my name on it, what is the charge. Oh yeah, retired and 75 thanks for a great video.

[@MarkDohring]

JoAnne thank u for the kind words... I got mine thru Rockler... I got the one that heats with a torch or u can get an electric one also... they are actually right now the same price...u get to choose the design also... Let's see if I can attach a link here: www.rockler.com/custom-branding-iron-15-styles-available

[@MarkDohring]

Yep the link works...

[@joannmickley9089]

@@MarkDohring what is your word on painting or not the birdhouse, and do the boards on pallets have arsenic in them? Thank you..... JoAnn

[@MarkDohring]

Jo Anne I have not painted any houses yet...I like the way wood ages out in the elements .. but I have one i'm going to do soon that will have some paint on it but then I will sand some of it off to give it an aged look..As for pallet boards having arsenic that I do not know... but I know that new pallet are suppose to be stamped on the side to indicate what type of wood or treatment was used. Below is a copy of an article on some of the stamping on a pallet. More companies are starting to build one-time-use pallets or using heat treatment rather than Methyl Bromide fumigation. Pallets now require an IPPC logo which certifies that the pallet was heat-treated or fumigated with Methyl Bromide. The standard is a 2 letter country code (xx), a unique number (000) assigned by the National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO), HT for Heat Treatment or MB for Methyl Bromide, and DB to signify debarked. The logo in the first image shows that it was produced in the U.S., the material was provided by 11187 (Unique number assigned to the producer), it was heat treated (HT) and was verified by PRL (Package Research Laboratory) Heres a link to that article with pictures: www.instructables.com/id/How-to-determine-if-a-wood-pallet-is-safe-for-use/

[@MarkDohring]

A lot of the birdhouses I build I use cedar fence pickets ...I actually bought about a 3/4 full pallet of pickets that had sat out in the sun and aged so we didn't want to sell them at work, so I got a great deal on them...Perks of working at Lowes...
