    I see you've got something to train climbers on, Nick - but can't see anything that will climb!! Am I going blind, or are you just thinking of encouraging your daughter into 3 dimensional planting?? ;)

    Looks good!! :D

    Nick,


    I did think, a slightly quicker way to do what you did with your earlier trough ...... A Diamond cutting disc ;) to remove the majority of stone.
