very simply done.

get one 8 foot long 2″x12″ plank.

get one 40lb propane cylinder, preferably empty.

lay propane cylinder on its side.

place plank on cylinder.

profit.

_MG_3268

possible improvements include removing splintery pieces from plank, adding handles, stabilizing fulcrum point.

already i can see the advantage to having an adjustable see saw: partners of disparate weight rejoice!

    I believe they call this a ghetto see saw.

    You’re lucky she didn’t get splinters in her thighs.

    I would have killed you.

    And what about the ghetto slip and slide you made for her last summer out of a green tarp and a garden hose?

    You should tell the people about how you and baby girl were both naked and running and sliding around on that thing for an hour.

    God if I had a blog back then I so would have taken pictures of it.
