How to Build a Bird House?
Birdhouses can be made out of every day scrap wood. Out of all of the wood products, this is the easiest thing to build with wood. Scraps of wood can be found in a persons very own fireplace. Firewood can be used to cut, shape, and mold into a birdhouse. Wood that is torn down from old sheds can also be used. Any kind of left over scraps are fine to work with. Most birds will not complain if the birdhouse doesn’t look as nice as their neighbors, most birds have been known to fix their own birdhouses to fit their needs. A person who builds a birdhouse will need to choose three pieces of semi thick wood that is of the same width. The first board will be used for the front, back, and bottom of the birdhouse. The wood for the back of the birdhouse should be a little thicker than the other two pieces because it will need to be fastened to a tree after the house is built. The front of the birdhouse will be built with thin wood, so that the door to the birdhouse can be opened and closed easily. The second board will be used for the sides. The wood for the side of the house should be wider than the other pieces, so that the birds have more space to move around in. The third board will be used for the roof of the birdhouse. The size of the wood should be big enough to fit over the birdhouse. Cutting the pieces of wood: The first board needs to be cut into three pieces. One of the pieces will be for the back of the birdhouse so it needs to be larger than the other two pieces. The other piece of wood needs to be cut smaller than both pieces because it will be used for the bottom of the birdhouse. If it is cut too small, it is still okay because birds will fill it with nesting. The last board should be larger than the board for the bottom, but smaller than the board for the back. This board will be used for the front of the board house. The second board will need to be cut into two pieces. These pieces will be used for the side of the birdhouse. One of the pieces will need to be cut one to two inches longer than the other. This is so that it can determine the slope for the roof. Marking the line on the boards will help to know where to cut. The third board will be just one board, but the length and width need to be big enough to fit over the birdhouse. It will be the last piece to be attached to the house. Attaching the pieces: Attaching the pieces is very important because it needs to be done in a certain order, or it will not work. The sides need to be attached to the back of the house first with nails. Then, attach the bottom of the birdhouse to the side and back with nails. Make sure to attach the bottom higher up on the sides so that it is protected from moisture. Attach the front of the birdhouse to the sides. The front of the house will be the door to the birdhouse, and it only needs to be attached with two nails. These will serve as hinges so that the door can open from the bottom and out. A small gap should be left at the top so that it can rotate, and not get stuck at the top of the roof. Attach the roof to the sides of the birdhouse. Holes should be drilled so that the sides do not split. The front and side should have an overhang. Also, drill a hole and use a nail as a locking pin. Once all of these steps are performed, the birdhouse has been built. Don’t panic if there are any gaps in the birdhouse, birds love to fill these in with nesting.
