    Lockdown project

    A "Climbing frame and tree house" kit arrived a week or more ago, kindly ordered by my OH. Has been a bit of a mission, lots of things didn't fit and the instructions, which I had to track down online, were far from Ikea standard. However got properly stuck in over the last few days, having at last got rid of the old oil tank, and some progress has been made. Plan to tackle the remainder this afternoon.
    And as these things need pics

    That's looks really good and likely to provide many happy hours of play.

    Thanks Dave. Now need to fit the monkey bars and hang the swings from that frame. Will post more pics when all done.

    Looks awesome. I’m assuming the 5 planks leaning against it are spare timber not a slide of some description?

    Lol bit steep and splintery for a slide. It will be a climbing wall once I get the holds attached.

    It was supplied by a company close to me, "climbing frames NI". The instructions were vague to say the least, had to do quite a bit of cutting and adapting, but I am fairly handy so no real dramas. Happy with the result.
