redid the slide

**grinner** · 10-03-2009, 09:38 PM

whew!
I made this slide a little over 4 years ago. I have recovered it each year but the decking finally rotted enough to warrent a complete redo:

Got the magnum fascia rockin' with solar-powered LED foglights illuminating the slide and the stairs. I put 4 coats of sealer on both sides of the masonite this time. Bring on the weather!
It would seem cars aint required for the mod bug.

Grinner definitely gets the award for the most creative use for your old magnum parts.

Did you know a 360 air intakz makes an awesome planter?

$5 to see Ryan try and run up that thing without hurting himself.

You know me well. It's one thing to go down that bad boy on wheels and a whool eother thing to do it while holding a camcorder.
I have wonderful kids. At most houses there are wild youngans pushing life too far with an adult keeping them in check. Here, 3 children constantly yell "don't do it, Dad!"
lol
Most of us are quire opposite of our fathers. By that, my kids will never do mach 2 down masonite, jump off a 100ft cliff, wreck more cars than they can count, jump over cars on dirt bikes, or get busted doin' 144mph.
How not to FTW!
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

No, no no! You go down the slide on the Big Wheel while the kids film you with the camcorder.

"I triple dog dare you"!

Good job. I might add a couple of old Conti tires (and wheels) buried to halfway mark along side the bottom of the slide. They would be nice and bald for smoothness.
