Well, you need to find wood like that. Unless you can chop down grapevine, de-bark it, dry it and disinfect it all yourself, you need to buy them. It's not like you can turn smooth pine into something like that.

Perches for budgie aren't expensive. Definitely easier and safer than doing it on your own.

I save small metal jar lids and run them through the dishwasher. Poke a hole in it with a philips screw driver so you can use it as a big washer. Get a branch and wash it with clean water many times. Drill a hole in the branch and anchor it with the big washer and a screw.
