Bird Cages Q&A: What would be the best material to use to build a bird cage for a macaw?

Question by stefano: What would be the best material to use to build a bird cage for a macaw?
I want to build a bird cage with my dad.. He says we can use pvc pipe 1 and 1/2 inch and GALAINIZED WIRE (toxic to birds but he doesnt believe me and doesnt know that). What paint can i use to paint the GALAINIZED WIRE so its not toxic and bird safe? I will be washing the wire with soap and water then boiled vinager and then soap and water.. Ill also give the GALAINIZED WIRE a 3 coat paint and let each coat dry for 24 hours and then do another and wait 24 hours and the last one and wait 3 days for it to be FULLY BIRD SAFE! Anyone have any ideas on how to build a bird cage with pvc pipe and wire? I want it to be around 5ft long x 3ft – 5ft wide x 5ft high.. Im also oing to use pvc pipe 2 inch for the bottom of cage so it can be off the ground about a half foot or more if possible.. I also want to but a piece of metal on bottom of cage and then a tray above it and the bottom wire above that so i can have a easy pop up clean tray.., also a roof so the bird doesnt get wet from rain and i want to put wire under the roof so i can easily hang toys for it to play with.. With the roof above it i can use it as a shelf to store the bird food or extra stuff of the bird.. Smart idea :)
I really want to do this and ive learned alot more about these hookbills.. If possible can you give me a picture on a site or something? Please help me design a great cage for a parrot to live happily in.. I want the best! Please be helpful and dont just do this to answer and get points, do it because you want to help me with my birds cage! Thanks!
