*I hope this is the right place to post this, it's kind of of "care"*
Has anyone made a scratching post themselves/can anyone direct me to a thread where this has been discussed. "tree" is too vague to search here.
I wanted to get a tall scratching post to put in front of a window but was turned off by the price for what i want--$189!!! That's more than a good quality cat tree!
Anyone know of any good step by step directions online? I've read this and get the general gist but I've never made anything before and I think this leaves out a few steps.
I follow directions pretty well but have never made anything like this before so I'm trying to do as much research as possible so this doesn't end up in the pile of projects never to be completed.
I figure I can get someone at Home Depot to do the wood cutting for me, get carpet squares pretty cheaply, get the rope either at HD or Amazon/Ebay and i have a hammer, screw driver etc.
My goal is this:
If the round posts are a problem finding (would pvc piping work?) I figure square would work well too and much easier to put together-fence posts are pretty cheap. I'm also thinking the cat bed may be square if I can't find a cylinder wood thingy.
Any ideas?
