I like busy times in the workshop. The place smells great, CBC Radio is entertaining, and the thought that my latest batch of birdhouses will one day be home to wee feathered creatures warm up the joint (a reclaimed, refurbished dirt-floor garage from the 1930s).
By the middle of next week two boxes of bits and pieces will be empty, eighteen birdhouses will be assembled, most flat surfaces in the shop will be covered and the chop saw and sander will be humming to produce trim from leftover rescued lumber.
I’ll take more photos once trim and oil have been added to those houses that need a bit of ‘sprucing up.’

And I’ll drop the ‘faded sepia style’ so that the true colours appear.
Until then, talk amongst yourselves!
