The Most Dangerous Playground I've Ever Built

What happens here

The creator uses a chalk line to mark the excess length of the horizontal slats, then cuts them cleanly using a circular saw with the pyramid standing upright. This creates a neat, aligned edge for the climbing walls. He then applies Minwax penetrating stain in a 'Weathered Oak' color to the entire wooden structure using a paintbrush and a rag, ensuring even coverage and a desired aesthetic. The structure is left to dry.

Goal: Finish the wooden structure by trimming, staining, and preparing it for waterproofing.

get to work [Music] now the reality is I don't need to do this part but I brought the tool with me it's just so much fun to do it this is a carving disc we just added to our angle grinder and uh we're gonna blend this uh this little radius right here because uh we're extra it just it makes everything look like it's one piece somewhat and it kind of gives a little texture kind of like a rock formation would and if you don't like it I'd love to hear all about it [Music] staying time now if you've been watching the channel long enough you know there's basically two approved sayings that Irina granted us with number one is what fruit number two weather though I don't know if you knew that or not but whether duke it is it's a proven one that nobody's gonna hate it we're not gonna go dark we're gonna go a little bit towards the gray side and I'm gonna smother the sucker with a paintbrush and then a rag should be fast [Music] oh hey you must be wondering how am I able to stretch so high in these work charts these are Ariat M4 rebar workshorts there's Dura switch canvas you know stuff lets you switch anywho Link in the description trust me you're gonna like these shorts they look good look at this you can't do that in regular shorts [Music] do those look like green clouds too [Music] I don't like this we have to get in time and waterproof this this is not looking good ah crap you think it'll ruin it [Music] so it did end up raining uh it doesn't look like it's gonna last long um so far maybe a couple of minutes into it it's already looking like it's dying off and maybe the clouds are passing hopefully my hopes is that this side which is the most vulnerable side the thicker side I had enough to dry so there's protection and hopefully this stuff will evaporate quickly so we can actually water seal [Music] foreign well that's the last of it I think got it all covered took me exactly two cans of stain which is a lot I've never done so much now it's not standing exactly like I thought it would Irina likes it different it's not sanded all the way well I only I skipped 80 grit I just went to lightly on 120 just to even it out so once this dries in the next I don't know hour I'm gonna lightly sand it with 120 just to lighten it up a bit and then we'll start waterproofing
