My Dad's Hobby!

Hey guys! I just wanted to share some of the beautiful things my Dad makes in his spare time. He's a very talented man!!

A gorgeous 8ft Dovecote! (We've had doves visiting every day!!) Houses 8 pairs of Doves!



A wall mounted Dovecote, houses 3 pairs! (A personal fav!)


A 'grandfather' Bird Table, about 6/7ft, higher than the others, with 2 extra feeding 'platters'!


A unique style Bird Table.



A beautiful Bench with small table


A bird table / planter mix!


And some random ones..

wow what a very talented dad you have, does it take him a long time to make them, they seem very intricate

Some very nice stuff! I'm liking the planter/bird feeder combo - that way the birds can spill seeds into the planter and you'll get a nice combo of grasses and sunflowers.

Wow there really good, he certainly is very talented

cool i wish i was good at making things like that

Wow, how good are they?

And £45 for a solid wooden bird table? That is SO cheap!

And my next creation will be a wooden staffy silouehette (after ive finished another dovecote ) i will post up some pictures of it when its done.
The dovecote takes approx 30hours to do, and the birdtables take about 4 hours.
Keeps me busy and the dogs like to watch

impressive! shame i cant do wooden objects - woody just eats them!

So clever - wish I could do something like that!

wow yeah what a talent he has.. they are great!!
what a shame you are on the other side of the world!!

Hi there,

I found this post whilst searching for a bird table planter mixed product online.

Is your dad still making these and would he be interested in making one for me and shipping it?

If so what would it cost for the table and planter mixed, and would it be possible to have it in a lighter wood?

Thanks

Wow! I’d purchase a couple if I was close! Would love some like that in my bird sanctuary!

The original post was from a long time ago and they may not still be around on the forum, gorgeous looking work though.
