Nice touch. The buildabug can get under your skin in a pretty bad way -- be careful.

Very cool. How are you mounting it?

Re: got really bored so i build a different parrot
I like the creativity and am planning a new parrot in the future to hang on my new rig.

Re: got really bored so i build a different parrot
Wicked looking Parrot. Can you post the size of the pieces you used? Im looking to build one myself but cant seem to find anywhere that mentions sizes of parts?
Re: got really bored so i build a different parrot
12 inches of 1"
2- 1" caps
1- 1 1/2" x 1" reducer
about 22" total of 3/8" tubing
it was fun to make ...the 1 1/2 x 1 reducer was 10.00 had to get it at a HVAC shop...as my local big box store doesnt have anything over 1"

Re: got really bored so i build a different parrot
What a difference between this thread and this one http://homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopi ... 6#p6972166
I guess it's the difference between a genuine hobby shiner and a fuckwit. Nice, skillful touch on a lovely parot.
