Amazing as always John. I'm sure the 150 year old barn wood had no idea it would end up as an extreme birdhouse :)

More beautiful birdhouses
to make me drool .Just as beautiful as all the others if not more so. You just have a wonderful talent.

John, that is called talent, as Glenda said. We knew a woman once who could take a blank piece of wood and a woodburner and make the most amazing pictures you ever want to see. The first art she ever did was carving Ivory soap bars into animals when she was a little girl. God given talent.

Thank you everyone.
These two took me 4 days to build.

I am also doing an article for a Canadian woodworking magazine called Canadian woodworking .
That will keep me busy for a while.lol
