I just thought that maybe someone would be interested in seeing the glider tree gym that I made for my boys yesterday. I collect driftwood, sterialize and bake the branches. The center pole is oak with 3 coats of finish.
I've added several hanging items, a fishing basket, pouches, ribbons, etc. my boys just love it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/multi.gif" alt="" />

I use a polycrylic (the same finish that's used on furniture) Table tops etc. When it's dry the surface is hard. This makes it easy for cleaning etc.

It's similar to Tent Material, the tail of it is ribbon.
