Default Homemade Macaw Stand

I saw that they sell replacement parts for the stands. So I ordered the top assembly pieces from Bird.com.

Double Food Bowl Holder - 9.99 ea.

Food Bowls For Parrot Tower Set of 2 - 20 oz. - 9.99 ea.
http://www.bird.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=502410

Java Top Tier Perch - 15.79 ea.

Supplies for 2 set ups were 72.53. (Free shipping!) We're going to build our own bottom part. I'll let everyone know how it turns out. We want these just for when the Fids eat dinner. They don't need them for recreational purposes.
We ended up not using the Java Perches that we ordered, they weren't long enough for what we wanted. Instead we used Dragonwood for the perch. This is the end result of our homemade version of the Parrot Tower. I just love the dish set up.

I want one!!! Where did you find the trays? I'm assuming you took something apart. I'm never lucky enough to have or find stuff that just works out perfectly like that!
