80-Year-Old Man Spends 13 Years Building Shelters to House 60,000 Pairs of Swifts

Stimpson has been producing oddly shaped boxes in his garage connected to his cottage near Ely, Cambridgeshire, for 13 years, using three saws and three drills. After orders rose, what began as a retirement hobby turned into a full-time profession, and he now works 13-hour days to complete them all. He sells them for £20, which covers all of his expenses.
