Homemade Perches
3
I've been meaning to do this for ages!!! I finally made my own natural perches tonight. I got the stainless steel hardware from www.myparrotshop.com for much cheaper than i have been able to find them locally, so i'm happy!

I took the bark off because it looks prettier, hehe!

Close up of the hardware end.
For the second perch i added beads and buttons and stuff to chew! It's a play-perch!

Great job Bea!! thats an awesome looking perch
hehe fabulous job mate! Did you use a drill to drill the holes for the toys?
Maya's breeder taught me how to do it... but I've never gotten around to yet hehe she also took all the bark off hers

Yup!! It was really easy to do. The hardest thing is drilling the hole to just the right size so that the hanger bolt will go in, is big enough that you don't break your fingers trying to screw it in, and small enough that it holds tight.
I wrecked about 4 other branches in failed attempts before i succeeded with these two. 
Those are great perches
Wow,
I haven't tried making my own wood perches, my luck I'd burn my house down! I love the idea of the wooden play perches.
I do make my own rope perches.
I sometimes add little wood beads to make the rope more playful.
Thank you for the link for the hardware.
