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.

Very good guide to building outdoor play sets.

A very good introduction on constuction. Reviews materials and details methods of building from foundation to roofing. This book also includes detailed plans for fifteen projects for all skill levels. A very good book to use, for the plans or just for the ideas and instructions.
