BriarRose Kildare Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Ah, WOW, both of those are SWEET!! Do they come in adult size too?

Zephaniah W Nash Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I've been planning a project along these lines myself. I've been scratching out some version of plans, but I'll take a look at those Perkeo posted -- thanks for that, by the way -- and see what I can put together.

Zephaniah W Nash Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 This is a very rough idea of what I'm planning: Pirate Ship It's mainly to show a basic floorplan and elevation (an architect I ain't). I'll put guardrails and such on the finished product, of course. I'm also up in the air about exactly how I'm going to build it, whether to frame it out and use 2"x12" decking, either on a wood frame or angle iron, or put it all together out of 4"x6" landscaping timber (I've been offered a pretty good pile of 'em just to haul 'em off, just don't know how good they are or how many exactly). Of course, it may be a while before I get to start, and it may need more of a carpenter than I am, but that's the general plan. Feel free to use it, improve it, or tell me just how wrong I am on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
count de monet Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 if i had a scanner, i'd show what i came up with..... maybe take a pic of it and then download wife said , the bigger, the neater, the better. so i went with that. i plan to make it look just like a boat. poop deck, deck, planking, mast, etc. i have the the basic design, i just have to work out some of the construction details. worked in will be a sand box, slide, ships wheel, gun ports, anchor, fo'csle, curved bow, lots of carpentry, and a bit of ship building also.the hard part is making it simple to construct, but i think that i am close. also plan on having the gun deck below !! overall, 22 feet long, 8 feet at it's widest, about 7 feet tall to the railing around the poop deck. we have a 3 and 5 y.o., ( the youngest two of 9 ) so they will use it for years to come.. just waiting for the nice weather to come along :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
