That is really cool. What kind of rope are you using to wrap the bars? |

The rope is bale twine. You can also use seisel, it's the same thing pretty much. Thanks for all the great comments I assembled another design in just 15 minutes  It take more time wrapping the perches than anything. |

Chaquita looks like a little model on her new playstand showing it off!! What a little cutie pie.
The stand looks great!! i can only wish that Apollo would stay on the play stand like Chaquita!! Then I could get hubby to make something like that!!
Oh, with that yellow rope, how did you get it to attach like that may I ask?? it looks cool.. |

As you can see in this image, all I did was use a 3/4 inch PVC cap, attached a little hook screw into the cap where the rope is, I attached a closed hook screw to the perch's cap. I fill the cap about 1/2 the way full of hot glue (I used a hot glue gun) then just simply put the rope into the cap
