Features
-
A homemade slide may be made from wood, plastic or any other materials the slide builder chooses to use. If wood or another material is used that is not conducive to sliding, a lacquer or other finish will need to be applied in order to make the slide spilnter-free and slippery enough for a good slide.
Benefits
-
A homemade playground slide may save the builder money as compared to an already-constructed slide. The homemade slide can also be custom made to fit the needs of the users.
Considerations
-
When making a homemade playground slide, it is necessary to consider legal and safety issues. Consult with your local code-enforcement office to learn about laws pertaining to homemade playground equipment.
