The Most Dangerous Playground I've Ever Built

What happens here

The builder begins installing horizontal slats on one side of the A-frame, which is intended to serve as a ladder or climbing wall. He screws these slats directly into the vertical beams, creating a series of parallel rungs. This side will primarily function for climbing and access within the structure.

Goal: Create ladder/climbing surfaces on the A-frame sides.

Tools and materials

  • Drill/Driver
  • Wood Screws

I kind of want to put like a tire swing down below here nice and low you know so like you just hit your head against all this stuff and get a nice nicely well concussed so you don't have to get that in sports [Music] part right here is going to be the rock climbing section you know you grab and pull yourself up I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make these angles because I'm not that good like I already mentioned so I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to screw right through the middle of this 4x4 and then have them overlap and then to make it look pretty when it's overlapping I will take a chalk line and my tracksaw and create a nice clean cut so we'll follow the profile it's nice to know that there's a solution for something might not be the best but it's a solution
