It's a playset, as evidenced by the slide :D

Tomorrow I hope to have a climbing wall and the gangplank on. This week I'll construct the beam for the swing and get that aloft. Last thing will be the roof over the primary tower.

Oh, then I get to paint it. That sucks. :p

Strange, I thought it was some sort of antiquated torture mechanism you were building at Gitmo. :Q

forget the paint, leave it as is. That'll teach em that not to rub wood or else they'll get splinters.

Boy or girl, that lesson won't survive their teen years.

It has been likened to a gallows, but I'll be careful not to tie any nooses in any ropes.

One time out in the woods I found a tiny little wooden step ladder and some rope that someone had left from when they were deer hunting. It had been there for years and was pretty rotten, but I had a stroke of genius and it served my purposes. I made the rope into a noose and hung it from a branch above the little step ladder. It looked pretty freaky when I was done. I love leaving little presents like that for people.

I've painted wolmanized, but you have to let it weather a couple of months to let the moisture out or the paint'll bubble and peel.

It would be much easier to use a stain, preferably an opaque stain.

Well, I see a couple of design flaws and some symmetry problems with the application of the bolts, and a couple of pot plants in the background.:D

I think you should save your sapling trees before building on that contraption anymore.
