@babe in these trying times, having a fresh hedgehog house to look forward to is bringing me unexpected joy

@BabblingGeek I cannot wait until it's finally finished and I can start feeding them again

@babe Thought this was a grab from Antiques Roadshow at first.

Will there be a portrait of M. Egg?
@cazabon There isn't, but I've got some smaller frames I'm planning on doing some things with in the baffles. The immediately ajoining wall by the entrances should be prime for some tiny pictures (a challenge though, they're smaller than these even)

@babe Do your visitors pay any attention to your artwork or are they too focused on the food to care? (Which is just rude, if you ask me)

@benjamincox They pay absolutely no attention but I maintain that if I keep at it then eventually one will appreciate the thought

@babe Maybe hedgehogs are more into sculpture than painting.

Baffles now cut out, sanded, and the first layers of paint going on. The sign on the front is painted.
Should be ready to put the main part of the building together tomorrow! -

I'll be making and selling some tiny paintings like in the hog house at some point too I think (3-4cm in size), once it's all done

Marine hinges and hasps for the roof flaps, I've seen the state store bought hedgehog boxes get into and we're bypassing that thank you very much!
If this damn thing is going to last 15 years it won't be let down by a bloody hinge.
Silicone and fibreglass sheet to cover the flaps too, and hdpe blocks to keep it well off the ground -

What I've turned this into is a fairly close approximation of how I'd go about it (just with a higher ceiling in the main chamber. For class, like. Love a high ceiling)
