Disclaimer:
These plans are designed to be used in conjunction with the step by step text instructions of this model that can be found here: playgroundideas.org/designs/. The intended use of the designs available on these plans and the website is to provide ideas for the construction of playground equipment from local and/or recycled materials. They may, or may not, be suitable for your purposes. Further, specialised knowledge may be required to construct safe playground equipment based on these designs-for example, engineering knowledge to allow selection of appropriate strength materials for the purposes to which those materials are put, or playground layout expertise to avoid layouts which might cause risk of injury to users. The use of local and/or recycled materials carries inherent risks. Before using recycled materials in playground construction you should consider the source and properties of the materials (strength, contaminants, splintering risk, etc) and whether they are fit for use in a playground. Improper construction and use of playground equipment may cause death or injury. Please refer to the Playground Ideas Playground Safety Handbook here: playgroundideas.org/handbooks/.

    I starting replicating this today. My 4year old has constantly reminding me that i promised him one. The bending was really hard so i ended up cutting leaving a few sections uncut. A lot more welding this way but id rather weld than hammer all day. I got the slide itself into shape. Tomorrow is the frame and pipe. Then hopefully paint the day after.

    Amazing result with such simple materials and tools but that blink-shielded welding at 3:26 makes me really sad for the man's eyes :(

    we alway have masks on hand and sadly many workers refuse to wear them as they were not trained to use them early in their careers. i agree, it is very dangerous, but very common in many parts of the world and the damage caused to peoples eyes over the long term is terrible

    Hi Drew, over 12 years, we have built playgrounds across the globe and volunteers are never hard to find and a welder and grinder are tools that can be found in almost every community ( and we have worked in some extremely remote locations) at fairly low cost. if tools are hard for you to come by we have many other designs to choose from that use even simpler tools such as our "tile slide" kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHqq07ixfcizoaw.html
