Strolling the yard
Since we full-time travel in an RV, it is not always possible to order stuff online. We were needing a tabletop perch for training so we put one together with only TWO parts that we found locally (plus a random screw we had on hand). We used:
1) This rodent 'hut' as the base. $4.49

2) This barkless perch cut in half. $5.18
Wild Harvest Natural Branch for Birds, Attachable to Cages - Walmart.com
Total cost $9.67
The cage attachment hardware of the perch became the attachment scheme to connect it to the base. We cut the perch at a place that would both make it a rather low perch (and therefore not likely to tip over if she flew onto it) and that would also give it more surface area on the top perch itself. The only modification to the base was to drill a holl.
There is a larger base at Petco for less than $15. If we had more space on our dinette table, I would have gotten that one. With such a large surface area on each side, it offers a lot of places to connect vertical polls from which to hang toys, branches, etc.
