The project:

This is a human sized chicken coop I made from scratch. I dont have any experience with carpentry or building so I think ive done a great job.

- Materials:

I also used other things like screws, hinges, staples, etc. All from bunnings

- Tools:

Circular saw

Staple gun

Drill

- Step 1:

Measured up the area then drew up the plans.

- Step 2:

Flattened the area and dug a moat around for the timber to sit on for water fall.

- Step 3:

Cut the timber to size and started framing. Had some help to connect the sides together.

- Step 4:

Added some timber to one side of the frame to create a fall for the rain.

- Step 5:

Attached the Corrugated sheets to the frame using roofing screws.

- Step 6:

Attached the paling from the bottom to the top to create the effect.

Hello @Banshi

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your chicken coop project.

You've done an excellent job in putting the chicken coop together. It has all the necessary parts such as chicken wire, timber framing, paling cover support and corrugated sheeting to keep the rain away. This is everything the chicken needs to have a nice place to stay in!
