I built the cage with wood from home depot. They had bundles of 8 foot wood which made it priced for less than $1 each. I can't remember if it was sold in 6s or 8s. The back/bottom half is lined with cheapish shower curtain type plastic which tucks under the base of the cage to help keep seed in. The bottom and bottom sides are lined with coroplast. The doors are made from simple wood frames, with hinges and latches attached as needed. The clear parts are pieces of thin plexiglass taken from a cheap poster frame.
I borrowed a set of tools but they didn't work! So the whole thing was done by hand with a saw and screw driver, just like the last one I built, when I told myself I would borrow someones tools next time. Haha!
I realized once everything was in place that the two flight cages have 16x20 inch doors that line up almost perfectly.
Once I don't have to keep my males & females separate, I may open them so they can enjoy almost 10 feet of flight space.
