My Waterpark

So it’s almost summer…and you can’t stay inside writing about routers allllll the time 😉 So my boys and I are going to build our own water park in the backyard. We started with some supplies. Gavin and I went to the hardware store today and picked up some junk:

a few sticks of 3/4\


a bag-o-fittings, valves and possibly a sprinkler head!

The plan is to attach all of the piping to the play structure in the back yard…here’s a shot of it.

That's right fool, I made those stairs.

Here’s the diagram I used for preplanning:

Visio 4 life!

Using the diagram above, we are going to have a dump bucket (fills with water and tips over, rinse and repeat), drip pipe that sprays water down, sprinkler head that sprays down the swing, a water canon on top that can be aimed and last a mister to keep us cool while watching the kiddos. I’ll post updates as we build.
