I was posting in 'man jobs' thread and thought I'd post a build log in a separate thread. Background is the play park near me was being replaced and the guys dropped me off the pallets and boxes that the new stuff came in, along with the old wooden fences. So i built the following, using the nails and screws from the pallets, all in all costing me about £25.

Forgot to take picture building the frame and the 4 days breaking all the pallets, removing all the nails and screws etc. I am in a rental property so couldn't put down a base, and only need it to last 2 years.

Old tarpaulin to make roof watertight

Doors done, running out of wood so using ply board where I would like to use planks, COVID 19 stopping me get any more free pallets!!

His jeep and the one I got as spares, repaired as it was too good to break, now is his sisters! (his jeep based on a mobility scooter I made last year)
 
I'll update as I carry on, love this working from home as I can pop out between emails and conference calls. Got some proper roofing material for £58, will fit that when the tarpaulin fails.

Comments welcome, as are ideas!
