Oh this was my quick sketch up design for the client!  While talking to the client about my initial design some changes have been made!   A tower has been added and a zip wire and fire mans pole couple other minor adjustments which are not on the sketch up!  but I didnt fancy adding them on the sketch up takes to long

Kid not kids lol.

Well it's ALL screwed together heco structural screws and stainless screws for decking and cladding so it should all come down easily enough.   He said 6years or so life span of the play area.  

He said I could have it for cheap when he is done with it but don't know where I could stick that lol it's massive.

Their is so much more work to do on it I really underestimated the time on this job.   Still got another roof to add on the middle module and all braces to fix and all climbing walls to build and swings to make and fix clad the other roof still..........list goes on!

The chip board needs to be painted. It covers the sandbox. My wife does not want any cats to visit the sand box, so it is covered. The rope is used to open a secure the top when in use.

I normally have my Kapex with UG stand  BUT  its stopped working!!!  Not cus its broken luckily but the plug needs replacing and I havent got round to doing it!   So my mate got his crappy chop saw out and when I say crappy it is crappy!  Ask Dean Social!  I think I can cut wood faster by hand than that stupid dewalt thing!  

In the Middle their is a hole and hand rail around   I have ordered some 36mm ROPE   from http://www.traditionalropecompany.co.uk/ (who is very help full)  which hopefully is coming 2 moro and then next week ill be making a rope ladder with wooden strings and thread it through. I just thought it would be different than wooden treads.

haahaa yeah!

I recon I could spin the blade faster with my hand. 

Not sure what model it is, never took interest cus I hate using the thing. I hate setting the bevel. I hate carrying it its big and heavy.  I hate its slow cutting power.  I hate the entire thing horrible thing. I keep telling my mate the best thing to do with that is throw it in a skip.

Very nice - great that not raining during build.
Just curious.  What drills / drivers did you use?
O/k, what I really mean is - did you give the The TI 15 a whirl ???
