Types of screws for playgyms/stands

Hello!

After reading alot of DIY posts about homemade play gyms and table stands I've decided to have a crack at them myself.

I am thinking of using untreated pine, with screwing the pieces together.

My question is what type of screws should I use? Can you get stainless steel screws? Obviously any zinc/galvanised type screws would be fatal should my birdie decide to have a "taste" of them...

Advice would be appreciated! Ta muchly

I use nothing but SS hardware on my "toys".

Any hardware store has them, I get mine at Lowe's. They can be pricey so make sure you get what you need. My first trip I bought the wrong type and didn't realize it until I went to use them.
