Description from the creator

This is a very edited video on how I build my bird houses. It is based on a design called the "the Chalet" by realbirdhomes.com (no longer online). I make mine from a single piece of 8' x 6" x 1" Maine pine and using a 1-1/4" hole opening for small birds like Chickadees. I modify the design by using 10" roof over hangs instead of 12" since my houses are usually wall/tree/decorative mounted.

This house is going on ebay and this is house number #54 I've made using this an other designs.

Any questions please ask. The video was good at 20 minutes, making into 10 minutes forced a lot of removal of footage.
