I’m building my kids a custom playhouse and fort. The playhouse sits on a custom deck. The fort is 5ft off the ground and will have a slide salvaged from the old playground set. Will include a custom rock climbing wall and ladder. Check out my Instagram for progress pictures! @aldanabuilds I already put in about 120+ hours into this project in 9 days.
