Did some more work on it today, it might need to be a little lower, it stands 8`4" from the ground at the moment and looks a bit big, once the decks are done and some rails are put on it it will top 12ft.

Not really bothered about the neighbours, its a temparary structure and it`s my garden so I`ll do what I want in it, I do love it when someone tries to tell me what I can and can`t do in my own house

the only thing they might grizzle about is being over looked by anybody up on the top platforms

we all know you're building it to ride not perv at the neighbours topless sunbathing

bet the thought never even crossed your mind

billstup · « **Reply #35 on:** November 12, 2005, 08:16 PM »

Well the one to my right I only talk to him as she is a moaner, and on the left they are moving, which is a plus as she could moan for England, so it should be half built by the time the new neighbours turn up

good if the new neighbour is into bmx!

Well they are a family with two boys of 10 and 12 I think, right in to their football which is good news as Joe likes a bit of footy too.

LOL

Did a bit more today :

I made a bit of a mistake though, I forgot to cut the extra 6" off the transition peices before they were fitted in place, so it stands at 7`6" at the moment, and I`m not sure how to do the copeing so I have a bit of working out to do before the platform can go on

Yep but its getting a new and bigger site! It amazies me that for years we tried so hard to get a skatepark in Crawley....they get one and then the council decide to demolish it and offer the possibility of a new one. Legends came from Crawley in the 80's....Dean Rush, The Zoid and Mr Canning was linked heavily to Crawley when we were young. Makes me wanna throw!!!!

will you do a one hand one foot drop in on it Bill? and post the photo.

I was at the home base/depot store yesterday, and nearly creamed myself at all the plywood they had. The wife reminded me we only went there for potting soil...dammit..
