Step 5

Make Bottom Cut Lines

  • Use a straight edge to draw a line between the two points on the bottom edge and the marks at 5-inches on the sides. These are the cut lines. 

  • Once trimmed, this should provide a bottom edge of 5-inches and two 5-inch sides coming up at an angle.

Step 6

Make Top Cut Lines

​​

​

  • Find the center of the top edge. 

  • Draw a straight line from that point to the 5-inch marks on the right and left sides. These are your cut lines for the top. 

  • Once cut, these roof lines will complete the five-sided panels for the front and back of the birdhouse.
