Ok, so I got delayed a bit but finally started the build yesterday afternoon.

Here's where it was when we (my father-in-law and I) started on it again @ noon today:

some of the carnage:

some of the "crew":

and where it was when we stopped @ 7pm this evening:

So the swings and the rest of the interior of the upstairs is pretty much all that's left. Have to go do some tracking in the morning then back at it at about 1pm

and the top of my list for Christmas this year (aside from an unlined fretless Bongo 6 in Olive Gold ) is definitely a skookum cordless drill!!! those mutha truckers is useful!

 

[Smakbass]

Yeah, mostly. We actually lived just outside of Custer just before the move to SoCal in '69. Lot's of people know of Ferndale - probably because of the high school. Custer - not so much because its city limits signs were on the same post.

Ken...

hehehehe, ya, I HATE that word and was included for the benefit of my wife as she loves the word but my counter to it is "cooky"... which I dig and say quite a bit 'round the house

anywho!!!


COMPLETION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and yes Tiffs, it holds 'em both but I wasn't about to "test" the swings... that would've made great YouTube though

 

[Aussie Mark]

Good job!

Looks to me like it would have been a 2 or 3 case project for sure.

 

[fly]

nicely done Pete.........i'm sure the kiddos are gonna have many good days on that.......

 

[tkarter]

Dig a pond around it and they can learn to swim after a high dive.

Or I reckon maybe given the location will be a fun thing to land on the skates.

OK, I want to play on it... there I said it. Now I'm going to watch cartoons.

Excellent work and a very cute crew too!
