A birdhouse is beneficial for birds and a significant project that can unite you and your child with a common goal.
After completing this critical project, a new hobby—bird feeding—might emerge. Who knows, your child might develop a love for observing birds and start capturing them on camera, which could turn into a real hobby.
To build a birdhouse, you will need:
Steps to achieve the goal:
1.First, cut the wooden pieces using a jigsaw or saw.
The designer needs to schematically depict the product in the website's style for clarity:
The dimensions of the birdhouse's front and back parts are 15 x 30 cm, and the side walls are 30 x 10 cm. The bottom of the house is 10 x 10 cm. The roof peak is created in a square, 10 x 10 cm, and the rectangle for the removable roof is 15 x 25 cm.
The top should be slightly overhung to protect the birds from predators. A chisel creates roughness inside the walls to help the chicks climb quickly.
2.Mark lines on the front piece of the birdhouse where the entrance hole will be located. The diameter of the entrance hole depends on the type of bird and usually ranges from 3-5 cm.
Cut the hole with a jigsaw or a round drill bit. Also, drill a hole for a perch on the front if this feature is desired.
3.Sand down sharp edges on the cut parts with sandpaper.
Once the elements are prepared, proceed to assemble the birdhouse.
4.Attach the side walls to the front piece. Insert the bottom into the frame and secure it with nails or screws. Attach the back wall to the sides.
5. Drill four ventilation holes in the bottom board. This trick will prevent air from stagnating in the homemade birdhouse.
6. Attach the roof peak to the rectangle. Install this piece so that there is an overhang above the birdhouse entrance. Do not fix the roof permanently; it should be removable for cleaning the birdhouse and adding food.
7. Congratulations! The construction is complete. Now, use the wire to hang it on a tree.
