Muddy1, the pipe is the housing itself. I was about to post the link to the article about box sizes and well, it's down because the site exceeded its "traffic allotment". The size concern is not the hole so much, but the living space not being large enough to allow the birds to practice their wings.

Here's a picture of the pipe used for the Gilberton box. Our Kessie was just using it for a perch. She's wild, but was released at our place after rehab. She stayed until March. This pipe is 4 inches in diameter, but really should be 6 inches wide. The pole that it is on seems to be predator proof enough, at least there's been no sign of illegal entry. :) Some people will hang slinkies from them as a guard.

Those pictures are not too bad, Cville_Gardener. :) That's an interesting spot for BBs, under eaves.
