Redesigned HBH

This is the second Hummingbird House Ornament I've made from the Ambrosia Maple blanks Mike Drake sent me. The roof is Walnut, and the perch Ebony. I wanted a little more overhang on the roof, but I forgot to trim down the diameter before shaping the peak and removing it from the lathe. I wasn't used to that step. Also I wanted to shorten the overall length of the house. Three coats of Wipe On Poly. These are fun!

Sweet! I really like the larger roof overhang. Time to get your timber stock resupplied, these are very nice.

Thanks Mark. Looking forward to some other timber, and design opportunities.

Very nice job. I would like to turn a few of these for our home. Were would I get plans (specs) for these? Does the type of wood make a difference?
