Leecher Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 My very first wooden project has return to me today A bird feeder that I had made for my father in law a few years back Inspired by his awesome work, was my very first attempt at making something out of wood using a band saw that my father in law gave me and when my wife handed me this today.... was stoked to see this piece I've worked so hard to produce had been stored in his work shop all this time All pieces have been created out of cedar planks, cut on the band saw to my specifications... glued together with some few needed screws It's a unique piece that cannot be found in any stores It's now being displayed in my living room and will not be used outside Here's a shot of it Another angle with the top open Other side Top view with open top This project was several hours in the making and really proud of it was specifically made for feeding chickadee's so that he can photograph them from a distance Hope you enjoy!

Moosebunk Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Birds would need a sledgehammer to bust into those feeding vaults Jacques. Good and tough craftsmanship!
