With some basic carpentry skills you can also create your own replica of the house of the architecture of the birds. The time and detail put into production handmade bird house replica will make it a truly unique and personal work of art. Following the same steps we followed in the New England Birdhouse, you will able to create one of a kind architectural birdhouse replica of your account.
Always start with a plan
We use CAD software to develop plans of scale for our custom birdhouses. If that is a bit too technical an approach to you, we recommend a simple as drawing. Outlining the details of your home including lines and angles of the roof, window and door positions and decorative molding. Transform this schema into a full-size drawing of the aviary. This plan will become a template for your bird house and provide the scale and positioning of the architectural details of the replication house birds.
One carton model of the replica of the house of birds can be very useful at this point, especially when working with the roof lines. Shipping boxes and tape can be used to create three-dimensional models to help visualize the complete bird shows and many birdhouse nesting chambers present. Normally, our birdhouses custom mirror about 2 "wide x 3" deep x 16 "-18" tall, and have two nesting boxes.
Safety Note of occupants
As you are planning and building your aviary reply, always consider the safety and welfare of the birds that occupy the house. The nesting chambers should be left unfinished and free of any paint, glue or chemicals. Any tips exposed screws or nails should be submitted without problems. The nesting chambers must have access to clean, drain and vent area and an entrance hole of appropriate size. To attract nesting more common in cavities using a hole no larger than 1 3 / 4 ". To protect the young chicks, make sure that the inlet is at least 4 "-5" from the floor of the aviary, so you can not fall. Do not include hangers, since it works as a place for predators to harass chicks.
The construction of the aviary
Our custom replica birdhouses are milled from 5 / 8 "eastern white pine, bound and joined with 8 'widths and can be pasted together to create walls and ceilings. Always use long grain, but the joints and never try to glue end grain, because there is a set structural. An inner frame can be built to connect the walls and ceiling. Make sure the bottom of the aviary is reinforced to accept the mounting hardware.
Details, details, details
Our architectural details are carved, burned and painted in our custom replica birdhouses using a variety of tools to achieve a look that you feel comfortable. Most of the architectural details can be created using a handheld rotary tool (like a dremel) equipped with a carbide circular disc or grinding wheel, and an artist's brush.
Painting and finishing his aviary
A sandy bottom on the outside from home replica bird and remove any sawdust. Seal the outside of the bird house with a paint sealant for water (as KILZ) and mixing latex exterior paint grade to match the colors you want. The exterior can be mixed colors retouched or hand brushed at the house of birds. Finally, two layers of non-yellowing marine urethane finish are sprayed onto the aviary.
Complete your aviary
Following these steps will yield a birdhouse replica, with the placement and proper maintenance will provide years of enjoyment. It is recommended that the homes were located in a shady area, under cover to minimize erosion and that moves birdhouses in the winter months. Over time, the aviary of reply should be refinished.
