Your Shorts version vid brought me here. Im a DIY'er with toddlers. Thanks for posting and giving me inspiration to build my own sandbox!

[@user-xz4eb5ot6p]

Very nice

I’m going to do something similar. Can I use pressure treated decking?

[@thirdstallwoodworking]

Yeah for sure. I built a matching playset out of PT. My recommendation is to let it dry as much as possible before using screws or it may crack/split down the road. Wait to stain it, I left mine all summer before putting the stain on and it has held up well for three years without needing to restain.
