Hey that’s really cool.
One tip maybe helpful: your tabs shear easily because of grain orientation. If you rotate your design 90 degrees Relative to the poplar so the grain goes “sideways”, your tabs will be very strong.

Good idea, I’ll see if I can nest the files differently

$20.00 seems china low - you should bump up the price. Quality work

Its the design files, not the actual birdhouse. I would expect the birdhouse would sell for a lot. If I were a bird, I’d want to live in it

I’m imagining all the neighborhood birds fighting over these beautiful houses.
