Well got a call from the Arts Gallery that she needed some more birdhouses as she only had 3 left of the 18 I took down. So here are a few more that I completed last night and this morning. I have 4 more drying. All are from scraps of wood I had in the shop that were to small or to short for anything else. Comments or critiques welcome.

Hey Bernie, sounds as if you are doing great at the Arts Gallery. Glad to hear it. They are great looking houses. Keep it up.

Bernie, they are simply beautiful. Perhaps when things slow down early in the new year you may consider doing a photo-shoot for us all.
__________________ Harry The best advice that I can give a newcomer to routing is, learn to use the router mounted, this can be as simple as a board held in a vice, with the router firmly attached and a simple fence held with clamps, and when he/she feels competant and confident in it's use and is familiar with all aspects of safety, THEN, and only then proceed to learn how to use the router hand held. This is MY opinion, and may or may not coincide with that of the forum management, but is based on a lifetime of woodworking. http://members.dodo.com.au/~sharry02/ | ||

Bernie, I have noticed some of the "tops" have the appearance of being checked? I was wondering how this is done?

Hi Bernie, They are beautiful.  I think Mike is referring to the one of the far left in the first pic. I too am curious how that was accomplished.
