    @scottbennett3975 Před rokem +1

    good job my only thought is make them so you can break them down for easier storage. make a place where they can come apart at the waist. that's what's stopped me from building one of these is having a place to store them the other 11 months of the year

    • @basicallyus2020
      @basicallyus2020  Před rokem

      So true luckily we have a storage shed that they can fit in. Another thought is you can always make them smaller?
