How to Build a Basic Birdhouse

Sep 23, 2010 04:40 PM
  • 1 – 1" X 6" X 6'-0" Pressure Treated Lumber
  • 28 – 2" Galvanized Screws (or nails)
  • Miter Saw (optional)
  • Circular Saw
  • Screw Gun 
  • 1 1/2" Hole Cutting Drill Bit
  • Hammer
  • Tape measure
  • Pencil
  • I always like to go ahead and cut all my pieces before I start to assemble them. It makes it a whole lot easier.
  • A = Left Side Piece
  • B = Right Side Piece
  • C = Top
  • D = Bottom
  • E = Front
  • F = Back
  • Some birds do not like painted structures and may refuse to nest in your bird house if it is painted.
  • I would recommend hanging the bird house no lower than 12' off the ground.
