Part of the woodworking collection.
We soon moved it away from these rocks and onto the grass.
I followed plans from this excellent blog post, although I had to adapt the plans for rough-cut wood dimensions. One of my first times using Sketchup, it was fun.
Cedar fence pickets for the climbing wall boards. 5/8” weren’t thick enough to not bow without an additional backer board running vertically behind all pickets.
200’ of 1/2” cotton rope for the net. Took forever to tie the knots. Used carrick bends.
The whole thing pivots and folds up on the top bolts.
Splintering was a major issue. Short of sanding everything, not sure what the best way to address would be.
Has since been retired, and appropriated into a bike rack and a garden trellis.
