Hey, I just want to ask if any one has MADE a bird cage before.

ShezbugYes we have had a few people share their home made cages over the time I have been a member here.
I can't say I would be happy to house my birds in most of them for varying reasons but mostly because I have parrots who are well known for chewing, hanging off wire/bars, testing boundaries and escaping cages all of which poses extra safety hazards if incorrect materials are used or the builders knowledge and construction skills are not up to standard- making housing for chooks or canaries/finches is quite different to making housing for parrots- so many extra concerns for safety with how parrots interact with their environment/housing.
Oops sorry. Missed this yesterday.Shezbug
You said to ask for pictures of your macaw, so here I am asking for pictures!

I live in the USWhere do you live (country) that will give people an idea on where to look for cages.
Also @Shezbug you have been asked for pictures of your macaw. And I would really love to see a Burt picture.

Budgie and 2.It depends on what kind of bird you want to have in the flight. What species and how many are you going to have in the new flight cage?
Okay! Thanks you!Be sure that the screws you use are also also stainless steel as the birds could come in contact with them as they dig into the wood. Zinc dipped (galvanized) mesh or screws are a risk for zinc poisoning. Screws with colorful coatings could also be a hazard as the coatings could break down and be eaten with negative consequences.
