My back yard needs a bridge. When I need to mow the back yard I need to cross a small, sometime wet creek. For years I have just used two wood two by ten planks to cross.
It might be a surprise, but for me, mowing is a great time to “meditate”. I think about all sorts of things, and this last week while mowing I came up with a simple bridge design. So I bought the wood and yesterday Zach, Jeanne and I put it together. Using a Craftsman miter saw and Ryobi cordless tools we were able to get it done in a very short amount of time.
I might have over built. I have a 54 inch Zero turn Cub Cadet Tank and I wanted something that could handle the weight and the width. I wasn’t interested in something fancy just durable and strong.
This was built with 2 x 12’s, 2 x 6’s and 4 x 4 posts. Once we started assembling we realized it was going to be difficult to get to and over the creek.
But Zach had a brainstorm and found a number of PVC pipes in the garage and we were able to roll it to the location and he and I were able to lift the end over the creek.
It works!
