A birdhouse for a wild canary

Our Entry for the Summers Woodworking's 2nd Annual Birdhouse Build Contest. Inspiration: The Wild Canary.... All about the Summers Woodworking Second Annual Birdhouse Build Contest

 

And here's Toby's entry to Summers Woodworking's 2nd Annual Birdhouse Build Contest 2014. Toby is our expert when it comes to software in the Bluesbarn Studio and a  very good guitar player.

The birdhouse is made out of recycled wood and other materials! Oh, by the way, he also had time to record the background music for this video!

In this video some recordings we've made, the simple construction of a laundry wash basin, out of recycled wood and "skip found" materials and .... a cold shower at the end of a warm holiday season!



#10 There's only one thing on my mind
