that rope ladder must have taken forever and a day!!! (how about using the rope ladders that come with the world peacekeeper tower, or several of them?)

Yes the rope ladder took a while, and its not easy getting the knots equally spaced.
I only have the one peacekeeper ladder, I would probably need 3 I think. they would be ideal !

I wont be going out especially to buy another 2 tho, perhaps if i manage to get a WPK joblot sometime in the future ?

The jigsaw work wasnt too skilled, required a little fileing and a bit of sanding afterwards.
