Hi Apollo,
Good work mate.
I'm a chippy and my kids would of loved a cubby house like that, I never got around to building them one. As per usual, all the gear is under the house to build one with. :D
I did how-every put an above ground pool in for them a few years ago. Which I knew nothing about at the time  ???
Which still isn't finished yet, needs a deck around the back of it.  ;D
Took over 2 months to build, every afternoon it would thunderstorm and fill the deep end up with water. which needed to be dry to pour the concrete mix for the footing and bracing.  >:D

Thanks guys.  I am an accountant by profession, but have a chippy brother who is of very little help to me as he lives 1000kms away.  This one was drawn on the back of an envelope and with a little research I was away.  No idea, no experience, no skills, no fear. Took two months and the paintings inside took longer than the rest of the building.

Two little girls love it though and that is all that matters.  When they outgrow it = man cave! ;D

And so you should be to mate.
I wasn't brushing over your effort
The only thing for sure in building, is the cost will blow out.

Solar Input battery box.
Nothing special but it works.

One Solarex SR4 and one as spare.


Little 44 amp battery only charges to 12.7 so is now "Rejuvenating" (might try it on myself but I'm not sure were to connect the clamps)


Three way ciggy sockets.


Will run lights for the CT and six 5 Watt panels provide the top up.
You use what you've got...  Cost to me was $0.
I love those jobs
Will be going with the Collabah Camper I'll soon have up for sale.

Bike rack that carries seven bikes.
There are six of us.

Bike rack on the ground ready for unloading - wheels on the back are for unloading a bit easier.
Later on a boat winch was incorporated to keep my back in running order so I could drive. :D


Kids pushing CT over the border - me in the front with foot on the brake. >:D


This project cost about $200. :'(
Seven weeks in a 7 foot tent CT.

Sick and tired of gathering rocks to make a rock ring fireplace in the back yard.
Had an old 25kg LPG bottle lying around from an abandoned project. Instant fire pit to keep the kids/wife happy.
