Our new PVC playstand

We were very busy last weekend designing and building our new PVC playstand. I think it came out great and Beaker likes it just fine. We'll be adding another dish, another section of manzanita perch, and a few more toys soon.

All of the hardware is stainless steel (SS eye bolts cost a fortune!) and it's wrapped in vetwrap.

Thanks, everyone! I had never seen vetwrap before and I was impressed with how easy it was to use. Hubby and I pored over photos of many homemade playstands posted on this forum for ideas and then just kinda decided to "wing it" (no pun intended). It was like a big tinker toy project!
