New play stand with lots of pictures!

Hello everyone,

I made this play stand for $39 Canadian ($32US). I spent maybe 2 hours getting it to this point, after watching the Ringneck hangout on it for a bit I plan to drill100's of holes all over for footing so she can climb up and down, and add more dowels all around. I will also be adding a lot more toys and might even expand on it a bit. My Nanday wasnt brave enough to test it out so he sat on my shoulder while I took the pics.

Amazing! A gym like that would cost so much money if it was sold assembled. I wish that I had carpentry skills like you. What a lucky ringneck. I am sure that after seeing all of the fun the ringneck is having the Nanday won't be able to resist!

This is the first project I have taken on. The only tools used were a hand saw and a electric drill.

As for carpentry skill, I have none! I bought 4 6foot by one inch dowels and 2 1/4'.
