Here then are the promised photos of the egg house. Made from the thick planks of a pine bed. Sawed those all thin, sanded and glued them together. I made swallow joints for the first time and it went fine. The cutouts for the eggs had to be tapered, since I don't have a hand router this had to be done with chisel and old fashioned sanding.
Lets see what is next on my list.

Looking really good
When you are very hungry or in hurry, you even do not need to open the doors

Hurry and raw eggs, not a good combi. But you're right, the heart shape doors are an extra dimension.
That is a really awesome piece of work. How did you get the chook to go inside and lay her eggs so neatly?

Years of training and discipline.How did you get the chook to go inside and lay her eggs so neatly?
And a lot of fried chicken if they messed up.

Here at home everything is ready for the modelexpo in the Scheepvaartmuseum Amsterdam this Saturday.
Meeting a lot of model friends and seeing a lot of magnificent models. I only take my Spanish Galleon and the HZ model and some tools with mee. No space in the car to take also the PW with me.
That last one got a temporary place on the chimney where normally the Galleon is placed.
A lot of fun Saturday.

Have a great time, Stephan. I’m sure there will be a lot of conversation around your models!

I have to make the decision to drive Saturday to Amsterdam for the exhibition or to drive to Harlingen and visit the Witte Swan…
The decision depends on the wather forecast for tomorrow.

If nothing unforeseen happens, we will meet tomorrow. Th shipyard in Harlingen is also open on Sunday. My wife told me, that it is ok for her to do both.
I wish you lots of fun, great conversations and reasonably good weather, greetings to Holland.
