Build your own parrot........

[Phantom]

Yes, I know that someone (sorry can't find the thread, or remember who posted it) was building parrots etc, but I'm also getting mails from the yahoo distillers and new_distillers groups.

This link was posted about how to build a parrot and the info/drawing is pretty good. Most of the materials are easily available etc, so I thought I'd post it for some of you to have a look/think about......

The link in Phantom's post below doesn't work anymore because the original post was maliciously deleted by a now banned member.

Here's a working link for anyone interested in making their own parrot.
