Zoom w a View: Barnboard - up close and personal

Before cutting up barnboard for birdhouses or a luge (the Winter Olympics are coming) I will examine the face of each board.


I look for a face that a bird might like.


How does one think like a bird?

Start by eating a grain cereal each morning for a week. If that doesn't help, join the club.


I just guess and pick boards that I like.


Knots appeal to me. That might be because I add flax and millet seeds to my oatmeal.

Do you find you look at wood grains closely?

What appeals to you?

What cereal do you eat?
