Instructions

    • 1

      Attach the threaded base footing to the piece of plywood. The type of wood selected does not matter, but the heavier it is the more stable the perch will be.

    • 2

      Screw the three foot pipe into the base. This will be the foundation of the parrot stand.

    • 3

      Connect the tip of the pipe to the metal lined T fitting. This tip will hold the parrot stand solidly in place so it does not wobble.

    • 4

      Thread the wooden dowel through the T fitting. The dowel will be the actual stand for the parrot.
