My wife wanted a couple of these to give as Christmas gifts so.......

The tall one is about 12". The dark rings on the right one are from trying to sand while the lathe was going to fast. But I kind of liked how they looked so I left them.

Nice birdhouses. I like the stick on the right, reminds me of a light post. Am sure they will be well received.

Oh, I really like those Curt! I don't think of seen any before with the natural edge on the roof. Very cool. I keep meaning to try some bird houses, but they're in line with all the other "I want to try" things.

Now thats pretty cool, yea... the natural edge roof really puts it over the top; the base, pole and house all look "sized" just right.
Not a big fan of the whole birdhouse thing, but these and the ones that Bernie guy did, with the shingle roof are really eye catching.

Curt, you did great on those. Did you add the edge to the roof or are they natural? Either way I really like them.

Curt, one would never guess the "rings" were unintended - perfectly the right touch. Well done!!! The one on the right is my pick! I like the slight roundness to it, the dark lines, and the pedestal.

I like them both but if I had to choose I would go with the one on the right. BTW what is "BE" burl, I am not good with acronyms. What ever it is it is a beautiful wood.

Those are pretty neat. The roofs remind me of an island hut,
