| Registered User Jr. Member |  Covered Wagon birdhouse This is a pic of perty lil birdhouse I just finished. It is a pretty easy plan & I built most of the wagon from 1/2" plywood that I pried from pallets @ my job. I just sanded it down with the belt sander and stained it - this one is minwax golden oak stain - the one I am finishing now is a blue colored wood stain. I just love messin' w/ stuff like this. I also included a pic of a birdhouse that I made from a Heineken mini keg. ENJOY! |

| Registered User Jr. Member | Thanx fellas! The wagon is a really simple build but it looks great when finished. I wish I could cut the wagon wheels my self but alas they we purchased -- I wound a really cool guy on ebay and after speaking w/ him I just started ordering directly from him (outside of ebay). He cuts all sizes out of MDF, Alder, & Oak. Yeah - I'm afraid I did empty the keg, it was a very nice refreshment on these hot days but not all @ once - took me a couple of days. It's definitely a conversation piece ~~ everyon that has come over starts looking @ it like they can't believe what they're seeing. btw - I did clean the keg out very good & added ventilation ~~ don't want any drunken birds flyin' around. lol |

Thanx - the wagon is pretty dinky compared to the monster birdhouses you're building. I took a look @ your site ~~ love your work - biggest bird houses I've ever seen. Great stuff. | |
