    Hey Mr TSJ…….TBH honest in a lot of my builds of anything I still revert to hand tools a lot of the time because by the time I get a power tool out and set it all up I would have been able to deal with it with hand tools. Not that nowadays people have them, but, a brace and bit for cutting the holes is a great tool as there is rarely massive tear out as its a gentler process! Nice video though bud as always its nice to see you TALK and take us through the process and you are right…'making' something has so much more significance than just going and buying it! talking of perches…..I wasnt aware when I did my first birdhouse that perches were a no no but posted on FB birdhouse builders community and was quickly put right!! Thanks for the video

    Great videos. I know you are using cedar pickets but are those 5/8 thickness? They looked thicker. Thank you 🙏
