Wife and I finally built the playset for the kids (she's been on 2 week vacation) that we bought way back in March. Did it in the middle of a record heat wave over 3 days, geniuses we are. Took about 24 hours working time, lost 6 pounds of water weight. I reinforced the deck so Dad's fat @$$ could get up there too (245lbs). Kids have been loving it every morning and a few evenings since completion.





The thing is pretty nice. I can stand up on the second floor and I am 6'8" so it's kinda cool. Can see over the house from the crow's nest. Going to add a couple solar panels with some fans and other accessories as well.

Man you and I are on the same wavelength as far as home projects go. (And cars of course)


I am collecting all the hardware to build a monster swingset in the backyard in a couple of weeks. It may have some platforms on it as well, but nothing as fancy as that multi-story play mansion. Well done
