Even though the boys lost interest in the project they will tell everyone how they helped Mom/Mrs. White make that bird feeder for years to come. They will puff there chest out like hey I'm the man bc I know how to build a bird feeder. My kids would do that after the would help us w/something big like working on the cars/trucks w/Dad handing him tools & parts. They where so cute. Plus you've got the video you can show them for years to come. How wonderful. You've got so much patience & that makes you one of a kind Ana. You my friend God has blessed you w/a lot of great features & abilities that few others can also do. And you've blessed me/others by teaching & showing us your abilities. Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful ideas & other fantastic features of designs to the world. It's amazing to what you can accomplish if you just put your mine to it & then execute it. You might mess up, but that's how you get better. God bless, Chris from Missouri
My grandson loses interest when he helps me, too. But he won't remember not finishing. He will just fondly remember working in the shop with poppy when he gets older. It isn't about finishing, it is about good memories. Yours and theirs.
Loverly to see you instructing the boys, they’re going to grow up just like Mum and Dad. At 69 I still remember spending time learning from my parents, in the shed, garden and kitchen.
What a fabulous project to build with your NHL stars. These are the memories that children cherish as adults AND they are learning some very important skills right along with it. Well done Ana.
NO WAY! Just this past week I was thinking of building some new feeders for the farm. I came to your youtube page and did a search. Then you upload this today.
Great lil project. Had a great time building this with my 7 years old twin girls. By the 3rd morning we were enjoying watching the birds grubing away in front of our window
I made a bird feeder out of sheet copper about 30 years ago. It’s still in use today, and it will last forever as long as I take care of it. I made my own purple martin houses out of sheet metal, and I built one out of 6" PVC pipe and sheet metal around the same time. I had a purple Martin colony of about 80 birds. I still feed the birds every year. I buy about 500 lbs of bird seed a year. The vast majority of that is black oil sunflower seed. I also feed a songbird mix to give them a variety to keep them healthy through the winter.
I did this project and it turned out great.Thanks for the plans!.....The only item I would modify is the base board that the birds stand on as they eat seed.Its a little to short so as I type this and look out thru my kitchen window I see birds (mainly cardinals) struggling to eat and stay balanced.Maybe it is just me but I am going to add extensions to the existing base board.
,like the build , but what really impressed me was the interest the children was showing,they are our future for looking after our birds and wild life, I have similar feeders but with net ,so birds can not be so nervous when feeding, I find also by this they stay longer feeding, thanks for video.
Ana, I appreciate your approach from the simplicity standpoint. Working with the kiddos can always be a challenge. You do a great job! Those guys need to build small toolboxes next. It will teach them to respect there tools and you won’t find them outside in the dirt...lol hope you have a blessed week!
Great project, I will make as Mother’s Day gift. Important to clean up below regularly, or you’ll end up with a rat problem. I suggest a firepit below, have a fire every now & then
I love the idea of using the cedar fence picket. I used to build bluebird houses using the same thing. It's inexpensive, weather resistant, and just about the perfect width for the houses. :)
Very impressed with quality of projects you show and share. ♥ I bought myself a Ryobi Sliding Miter saw for my birthday and learned to use it so I could build an 8 x 12 recycled window greenhouse last year. Thank you for being part of the community teaching those of us who "wonder how". #UseInternetForGood :)
Two years later, cedar pickets at both Lowes & Home Depot are about $2.50 for a 6 foot board by 51/2 inches wide. You might be looking at prime cedar planking vice “fence pickets”.
I make bird feeders out of the containers that my cats’ treats come in. It’s what I call free entertainment for my cats, and ironic entertainment for me. It is so hot, here in Nevada, that the plastic containers eventually crumble from hanging in the sun, but my chubby house cats eat lots of treats. I had to start limiting myself to one large bag of bird seed a week. The small birds line up along my wall and take turns, while the big birds fight over the seeds that fall to the ground. All of my neighbors have dogs in their yards so it is a cat-free, safe zone for birds.
Hi Ana! Beautiful feeder and very practical. And if you have such Helpers, the joy is double! A month ago I also made a feeder. Mine was traditional Japanese style. All the best!
While everyone else is talking about how fabulous the end product it I’m most impressed by the ability to free hand a straight line 😂 my cuts look like a jigsaw puzzle
i was very impressed i take it your hubby rolled the camera those young men wore safety glasses you did a eccellent job hey! cover it with plactic vine flowers and paint it green great job my dear
Quality time in the shop with your children. Building more than just a birdhouse, building memories for years to come. I love the memories produced in the shop with my grandkids. Can you tell me how you created your handwritten name electronically? I see it in the video in the background on a sign. Just wondering how you created the electronic from the hand written; not the sign in the background.
I am sure Ana will answer you but maybe I can help. My way to do it, is to just sign your name on a regular sheet of white paper. Scan it into your computer. Bring it into your cutter software & enlarge it, including the lines. Now if you do not have a cutter and only a word program the process is almost the same. Scan in your signature, enlarge the size and print out. Use carbon paper to trace on your prepared board & paint it. You could also print it out backwards, trace to the back of sticky back vinyl and cut out by hand. There are also places online that will do it for you. Good luck!
I can import a scan of actual handwriting into Adobe Illustrator and Fitz with it or just create in Illustrator using a font that looks like handwriting.
Yes, 3:40! I was cracking up at that point, too. Hays banging himself on the head with the orange juice bottle. Classic kid. Ana is sooooooo patient. I could never do it, LOL.
@@nunyabizness3890 she is very patient. I have been a stay at home dad for 6 years now. Oldest child was born with a cleft palate and had surgery at 9 months. My son was diagnosed with epilepsy when he was 2 in 2017, my youngest is WILD she's 2. She's like a tornado lol
Hi Ana, I love your channel! I've made the children raised planter and the tapered planter this week. I'm trying to work on the bird feeder. I'm a bit confused on the diagram. It says cut list is 16"sides. So it does not include the apex/triangle of the roof? So with the whole roof , it's 18 3/4"? I am using the Tropicana bottle as well.
The wooden piece with the hole should have been placed higher in order to better support the feeder. The way it is now it’s possible to easily tip. If placed up a bit more it would provide better support. I’m making one right now & thats going to be the last piece i insert.
I added a hinged top and cut the bottom of the bottle off...makes refilling it 100% easier. Taking the bottle out, filling, and replacing it upside-down was for the birds. Big pain.
Novamente parabéns à vc e seus auxiliares.... muito bom. Achei lindo o ato de incluir a família nesta atividade...e sua atitude de marceneira profissional e mãe prudente.... congratulações. Eloir... Londrina city... Paraná state...from Brasil.
Dont know where you could possibly get cedar for $2 it is very expensive in ireland for cedar and I work in a mill even if I bought from my own employer it would cost to much talking €60+ something for a 6x1 8ft
The kid hitting his head with the bottle in the background 3:37 and grunting....lol I used to be that way when I was a boy...well still kinda that way today in my 40s ..lol
I can’t find a decent bird feeder anymore. I’ll warn anyone in the market. Do not buy a feeder made in China. They are not weatherproof. The water gets in and the seed gets moldy and will kill the birds. The feeders that have a wire of some kind going down inside the feeder let the rain run right down that piece of plastic or metal rope. It’s disgusting to see what you get for your money anymore. This looks like a pretty good waterproof plan. The seed that comes out should be eaten before it gets too soggy. It doesn’t cost a lot of money to take a few minutes to think out a workable plan to make products instead of producing products that are actually harmful or at the very least unusable for their purpose.
Even though the boys lost interest in the project they will tell everyone how they helped Mom/Mrs. White make that bird feeder for years to come. They will puff there chest out like hey I'm the man bc I know how to build a bird feeder. My kids would do that after the would help us w/something big like working on the cars/trucks w/Dad handing him tools & parts. They where so cute.

Making this with my daughter today! Perfect Sunday project! Thanks Ana! We ♥️ you!!!
I too
and build houses and my daughter paint the houses have a good day
Great idea with the juice container. If I were to build one I would make one change: put a lip around the base to hold the seed in.
What a sweet spring project! Thank you Ana! ~ Happy Spring ~ Maria
Beautiful family !!! God bless.
NO WAY! Just this past week I was thinking of building some new feeders for the farm. I came to your youtube page and did a search. Then you upload this today.
Awesomeness... great plan and wonderful to see the boys helping...
Blessings
Awesome job getting kids involved and interested in woodworking and recycling too!
Love the bird feeder. Your boys are adorable.
We feed the birds all winter long! We have the fattest squirrels around! Lol. Great plan Ana!
I too
Great lil project. Had a great time building this with my 7 years old twin girls. By the 3rd morning we were enjoying watching the birds grubing away in front of our window
Wonderful!
looks like a good Cub Scout project. good job
Have shared this with three people! Love it! Plan to make one and share with the kids at the center I volunteer at. Thank you sweetie!
Loved that the boys learned how to do that. Great job.
A useful bird feeder from recycled material and a great example of how to train future woodworkers. Thanks very much. Thumbs up to crush a troll.
and build houses to
I love that you involved the kiddos!
nice Ana bless you and your family always

Nicely done Ana! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
❤️ looks fun to build with the grandkids
I know this is 2 years ago, but those 2 young men are all boys and a hoot, pretty good stick handlers to boot, i love it, thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching Terry:)

Great another 2 master builders in the family
This is the sweetest most wholesome thing I have seen all month. Loved this. I think I might be brave enough to maybe try this one

Such cuties. And boy do they both have excellent hand eye skills with a stick. Very cool idea.
3:40 “Ok, while you draw that straight line, I’ll be over here braining myself with the empty OJ bottle.” 😂🤣😂
That's how I look when I cut a piece wrong.
Perfect project to do with future nhl stars.

1. Ana White should have more subscribers, really underestimated talent.
2. trying to find cedar under $20 is almost not possible.

Hi Ana!
Beautiful feeder and very practical.
And if you have such Helpers,
the joy is double!
A month ago I also made a feeder.
Mine was traditional Japanese style.
All the best!
Where did you get your clamp and is it just called a C clamp? Loved seeing your boys helping Mom!

you did a eccellent job
hey!
cover it with plactic vine flowers
and paint it green
great job my dear
Brilliant I’m going to make one. John from Yorkshire England.
Fantastic!
Does the bottle sit at the bottom of the feeder, or does it “hover”?
If the wind blows, and the feeder swings, is the bottle going to fall out?
awesome, making one for my wife on next build
Have fun!

Does the bottle fall out of the feeder? I don't see anything to prevent it from falling out in a strong wind.
We haven't had issues with it falling out and we get high winds where we are.
The wooden piece with the hole should have been placed higher in order to better support the feeder. The way it is now it’s possible to easily tip. If placed up a bit more it would provide better support. I’m making one right now & thats going to be the last piece i insert.
Thank you for great video.
May i ask where to get that clamp
It't a Kreg Trak Clamp Kit www.amazon.com/Kreg-Tool-Company-KKS2745-Clamp/dp/B016S81JCU/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=kreg+track+clamp+kit&qid=1622089050&s=hi&sr=1-2
I added a hinged top and cut the bottom of the bottle off...makes refilling it 100% easier. Taking the bottle out, filling, and replacing it upside-down was for the birds. Big pain.
Great tip, thank you!
One kid doing a good job listening and drawing a straight line….other kid (smashing bottle repeatedly into forehead) 😂
Haha, i saw that too. 😮
🐤🐤 yum yum 🐥🐥
How well does the bottle stay in the feeder? I can imagine squirrels and wind would bounce it around a bit.
We haven't had any issues with it.
Good job good mom
Thanks for the visit!
Good job
Thanks:)
Yay! Hayes gets his wish!!
Fajny projekt ;)
What keeps the squirrels from knocking the juice bottle over to get to the whole booty?! Great video! Love the kid factor.
You could drill a hole through both sides a put a dowel or a piece of coat hanger wire to hold the bottle in place.
Cool
Nice. How Tall is it please.
