When this dad saw the jaw-dropping prices of large playsets, he decided to take matters into his own hands—and his backyard will never be the same.

The project cost him around $5,000, a fraction of what he would’ve paid for a similar setup.

By sourcing lumber from a local sawmill, he saved even more, transforming raw wood into an imaginative play space for his children.
