Making An Oak Bird Table 

Tools I use www.badgerworkshop.com/toolsiuse

I've seen these things at the 'garden centre' etc and often times they have all the finesse of a cheap lap fence panel! The Badger Bird-Feeder on the other hand is the Rolls-Royce model - well done, I hope the birds appreciate the love you've shown, Matt.

great little project, add some 2" pads to the foot stretchers and this will counteract any uneven surface. Well done Matt…..

Nice bandsaw!

I'm all for bird tables and helping out the birds 😃 well put together and a cool design👍

thanks , look nice. good someday to see how birds stay comfortably therein

Fancy birds indeed! I like the collonade, that's a good squirrel deterrent. Thanks for sharing, all the best

Very nice. I especially like the portability aspect. It makes it easy to put on a concrete patio yet mobile enough to clean up around.

Nice build - I hope the birds appreciate it. :-).

Great job Matt. The solid Oak bird table will last for ages and mellow with age. Your customer will be pleased. Tony

Well done Matt.... The customer will be able to watch a few gladiatorial encounters for the last scraps of bird seed 🐦💪🗯️. The oak looks class...

Great video, I’m sure the birds will love it.

Hi Matt, that looks fantastic and I'm certain the birds will enjoy their new house, take care and keep safe mate.

Small is beautiful. Thanks for sharing the video. Up to now, I've never known the UK has oak birds. LOL

Great job that. They are some lucky birds 👍🏻

Hello Matt really like the bird table great job i really like all your content you made on here

Nice design mate and execution looks great 👍

It is so beautiful and the first that came in my mind when you finished it is , how that simple structure can be so attractive to the eyes . Very nice job !!!!!!

Nice job Matt!

You have a better class of bird's where you are Mate 👍😁

Very nice indeed.

Nice video Matt nice bird. Table

Really nice job Matt.

Great bird colosseum Matt!

Nice one Matt.

Good job 👍👍👍

Nice work sir

VERY NICE JOB

Good one mate

Very nice. But instead of a full surround edging of the table, a partial surround would enable draining & ease cleaning of the table so you can brush uneaten food off at the corners. ;-)

very nice :)

It looks like you covered your drain holes. Is there space under the port with the dowels in it to allow water through?

I just wondered where you got the glue spreader from Matt, seems to work great..🤣 Nice job boss, I’ve made a few very similar to that but from pine, the oak makes it look so much more professional, and high end. Great vid as always. 👍🏼

Posh restaurant for posh birds! 😆 Nice build, looks posh....hahahaha

Hi Matt, I use all reclaimed wood mostly pallets but some other wood comes up at times, I have a load of mahogany bar tops that came out of a pub that was being modernised and I also have some maple left that came from an old dance floor (I have a friend that refurbs that sort of thing so I get the wood instead of it going into land fill a win win thing as far as I am concerned. Some of my pallet are from a firm that makes stair lifts and the pallets are over forty feet in length it is amazing what is put into one use only pallets oak and other hard woods and as you will understand these pallets are made for four by four or even bigger timbers as that have to support heavy steel girders. It is a pity you live so far away or I could have given you some, but as I am in the north of England and the covid problems that is out of reach. Nice bird house by the way.

Dining at the Ritz for our feathered friends!

You’ve never said you were in to posh birds Matt 😂🤣😉! Classic build, would sell for $1m in garden centres!

Matt, not sure if you read messages from older videos, but I’d be interested to know how you deal with bandsaw drift as you never seem to suffer from it. I have the axeminster saw and I really struggle even with a wider blade. Doesn’t matter what material I’m resaving

NICE !!! Bird Table, WTF ??? We call em a bird FEEDER in TEXAS !! HAHA Beautiful work, Great video !!

Cool, I have a bird feeder for the window on my channel, how do you like this idea???

Hi Matt great build as usual. Following your lead on trying to use as much reclaimed timber as possible but looking for advice on finding hidden nails etc. Can I ask what you do.use apart from a careful visual inspection before running timber through the planner etc. Thanks

Goff Edwards the game show host?

Really nice job Matt. Just noticed the Festool tracksaw reappeared, is it a new one or did you get it repaired? If so, what did you have to replace?

This is the birds' coliseum . You now need to build a cat house ... ; - )

What Planer/Thicknesser do you use, Matt?

I'm too cheap to make myself an oak table, never mind one for the bloody birds! Does look rather good though!

colosseum or pantheon? the Pantheon was the one with pitched roof and pillars

those "oak birds" must be small, do they have good table manners ? expect the drainage holes to be too big if the seeds are put on the floor and not in a dish.

Hi Matt, I can’t help but to think you have lost all the beauty of reclaimed wood by the time you have planned and sanded the wood it could have been brand new.

All my research into bird tables only goes to proves all leadiing manufacturers have not a clue about bird behaviour what so ever, Here in the uk, My main concern is our native song birds small garden birds, Such as black birds, Robin's, The blue tit family,Our finches, Wren's, And what I've seen so far in the market place to purchase are total rubbish, No real practical use what so ever, I wont a design that excludes Seagulls, Corvid's, and most of all Pigeons, The average bird tables have major flaws IE almost flat wooden roofs, But manly design, In respect the height of roof from the feeding base? The wooden feeder standing support directly on the ground will rot, In a couple of years!! Try to design a more practical use to meet the needs our birds, And not the people who wont something pretty in there gardens!! And lastly most of the feeders are grossly over/priced!!!😡

Nice work, but wrong design. It's no good at all that the birds can cr*p on the bird food. That way they are spreading diseases. Make a bird feeder and put in center under the roof. 🙂
