Nest box opened. I cut the angles wrong on the trim for the door, but I was out of 2x2 so I accepted it.

Finished! 5W x 8L all pressure treated lumber. Used 3 inch deck screws to assemble. Still need to add wheels to make it mobile. Thinking about adding wheels all the way around, that I can engage and just tow it around with my mower.
