  • Informative book
Exactly what I needed for my plans for the backyard. I haven't had a chance to start my projects yet, but this book will help a great deal.

  • Great book for the basic builder
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. ... show more

  • not the book for a playstructure
This is not the book you want if you want to make a backyard playstructure that has a lot of different playing surfaces--things to climb on, slide, things to swing from. Each project in the book only contains one element--either a swing, or a climbing surface. Most of the projects are actually just a "playhouse"--which is essentially a shed with different looks to each of them. The building plans are far more involved than a person needs for a playstructure for a flat backyard. I wouldn't use any of these plans. there are better ones online such as on youtube. ... show more

  • disapointed
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.
