Thanks for the new series of videos' . Lot's of kids would enjoy helping on a project like this and they learn a lot more than just nailing boards together. Great idea!!!
Just need to raise the entry it so easy to loose a egg or little chick , still an excellent,family video. Nail holes could have served as air circulation .
I ended up toenailing in a few nails (shooting them in on angles). If we did this again, I think I would make the bottom boards longer and let them hang out the front so the birds had a ledge to land on. You could then just nail up through them into the other wood. But, this is how my daughter designed it, so that's how we built it.
the guy on the orange cap is the boss 😊
Love how you’re so wonderful with getting kids involved throughout the project! Inspiring parent 😁😍
Good job guys

Great point. This was our first attempt at a birdhouse.
caution! some pallets are treated to kill bugs. toxic to wildlife, also.
and don't use toxic chemicals (paint, sealers), either.
How do you connect the midde piece of wood where the door is?

Should have put the perch under the hole lol
Yep. That's what happens when you're in a hurry and let your 7YO draw the plans, though ;)
what is the name of that pallet fork??
It's just called a pallet buster. I bought the fork portion and then bolted on an old floor jack handle.
What gauge and length nails are you using?
18ga. 1-1/4"
