Review Summary: Great book for the basic builder
Date: 2007-10-24
Details: This book has alot of great plans for playhouses and backyard play structures (such as swingsets). It was easy to read and follow. You have to know a "little" about building with wood (basic tools needed, etc.), but everything else is laid out well in this book. Directions were easy to follow and the results were nice.
Review Summary: disapointed
Date: 2007-08-27
Details: the book contained almost no items to build like swing sets, slides monkey bars climbing stuff, great if you want a playhouse, but lacked variety. $16 wasted in my opinion don't recomend buying this book.
It only had about 20 items to build. omly one swing set.
major disapointment.
Review Summary: Good for play houses, but not for swing sets, etc.

Details: This book has great plans for building forts,play-houses, but it does not have much in the way of swings. If you want a swing set play area, better find another book.
