Gift from Maddog! Wren house built on a shovel with tuner string and 'U.J.' wood burned by the tuner.

Not much acoustic volume, but good chirpy tone. Currently tuned to B.

Linda likes it and we hope to get some wrens nesting.

Happy walking, building and birding, Bjorn and wife!

Comment by Bjorn Damsgaard on April 30, 2016 at 4:58am

Just took a look to controle my "measurement" of your  hand, and I have to tell you that I just misinformed you, the moderate blade length is about 3.1 inches not 2.5 but that is still a moderate bladelength and gives a very good whittler in the right hand or if you prefer - the left too. Blade is chosen and the wood for the handle too. Now I go for a walk   with my wife.

Maybe it will house a Blue(s)bird by and by? Very nice couple, looks kind of kind!

It is, Papa D.  Looks good in the garden too.  Maybe we will get a pair of wrens.

Thanks, Bruce.   We do get together a few times a year.  Should do more.

Me too  on the bird house, Wes.  Patrick will likely sell all he can make of those at the antic shows and Junk Stock.
