I wanna build it all outa steel (except the top of course which would be pvc sheets 8 inches wide)
i can weld it up nice what do ye think :
(btw the flat bar is 25 feet and the riser is 25 feet, so 50 feet of sliding ) _________________ They know what is what but they dono what is what they just strut.

I'd make the flat bar a bit longer than the upramp... maybe like 35/15... and it would be pretty heavy... |

Josh R, how about 12 inches
aFramer... six is probably better. But what do I know, my slider plans have been sitting on my computer for a year. Check out this one I made for fun playin' around in 3-d max |

I built a sick 40 ft long rainbow out of trex wood on top and its 2 ft high. Its rad. I used a water pump (not a fat sac pump) and put 4x4s into the sand (the water was 5ft) and so 3 ft of 4x4 into the sand and 5 ft of water left 2 ft out-didn
't have to cut the 4x4. Put on of those for every ten foot then just put 2x4s along the side on top and then 2x10s on top then the trex. Supprts were put on 3 of the 5 4x4s and its super sturdy. The slopes up to it were pretty tricky. You have to estimate when you put the post in the sand if its lined up and then you have to nail some underwater which is a pain. Once it was all done it cost 300 bucks and half of that was the trex wood-$1.50 for each foot!!! 10 foot long upramps on each side and a 40 ft flat part-thats 60 Ft. If you want some directions on how to build this, email me. _________________ tragedy is when i cut my finger. comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die.

smlparksguy133, I used it at school (media/computer studies) we had it there. You can probably download it off kazaa, it's probably a huge file though if it is there. It's called 3d studio max. |

03Belmont, that's all that I made... I may put a design together over the winter, but I want to see what wood I have kickin' around at the cottage so I don't have to buy much. |
