    I'm impressed.

    Unusual positioning.

    This sort of thing can enhance the ambiance.

    For new contributors, who may not have seen them, here's some "ambiance" I made earlier...well... Nearly thirty years ago and they still give us a lot of pleasure. Nothing beyond the capabilities of the average DIYer.

    This one is approaching 30,000 hits, increasing now to around 90 a week. Dunno how many have been built by "lookers" in the three years since I made the video

    The last one in this is based on photos of a specific pagoda in Japan.

    I have no idea, the materials cost £50 that's why I'll let the market decide ........It's worth what people think it's worth and for me it's a hobby

    That's one heck of a bird table. I'd be up for one Be careful what you wish for. A couple of years back I went and
    built a drum in my very big man shed cos at the time they cost soooo much money and they were all huge...
