Thank you gentlemen, <br /> <br />It took 10 months however 5 of those we couldn't do anything becuase of high temperatures wouldn' allow us to produce concrete mouldings. <br /> <br />I actually drew it all up on graphh paper beforehand. <br /> <br />Will wait for a while and get Troy to post several pictures we tookj along the way. <br /> <br />Of interest was the first initial curves for the climbimgh ramp with a double track, very hard to get right, changed it several times and in the long run made the curve out of a 12' piece of club track and from that produced a template in cardboard, Doreen transferred it to a large piece of marine ply and I cut it out with my jig saw (saber saw). <br /> <br />This had to be 100 % right because verything else depeneded on it as was the placement of those 3 sets of points in the middle. shape, levelness and gradient absolutely crucial, in such a small space. <br /> <br />Any way i am pleased you all like it. I also have another photgraph showing the incorporated watering system working. This is also crucial in a dry country like Australia, to be sure of establishment of plants etc. <br /> <br /> <br />Rgds ian
