We used a water based exterior varnish rather than wax to finish our Triangle (see @16:30), it's a little harder wearing and no chance on anything rubbing off onto your clothes or carpets. Just be sure it is fully cured before brining into your kids room, the VOCs in varnish can be nasty.
The Slide/Climbing Board is made using Solid Pine Furniture Board (aka Timberboard). You should be able to pick this up easily in any DIY Store or Timber Merchant.
Our little one certainly loves it, really great to see how his play changing as he gets older and more capable. You can print it on any size paper you like, so long as you set the scale to 1:1. Though it is optimised for A4.

Thanks Beano 👍 we appreciate it!
What kind of wax do you use? I was thinking paste wax possibly, but I figured I'd ask to make sure.

Never seen one of these before. Looks great fun for adventurous little ones. Can the template be printed on letter size paper too? Or just A4?
