i want to buy my little girl a play set. who has purchased one recently in the BR, LP, Ascension area? Im looking to spend under 1k, and i dont have any thin low quality wood. i am also considering just buying lumber and building it myself. Any recommendations?

Go to the woods, cut down a tree, and mill the wood yourself. Your daughter will love you forever.

There is a thread that I started yesterday. I bought the one from Home Depot because I felt it gave me the best value for time involvement.
If you have time, get some plans, cut and build it yourself to save some money. I should get it in about 2 weeks. I will have myself and probably 4-5 friends to help knock it out quickly.

I've seen nice wooden play sets at Costco before.

Buy the lumber and download plans and build it with your daughter. It'll be a great experience.
My dad and I built my swingset/tree house and I'll always remember that
Swearsies it's a better option.

I built a basic square tower about 50 inches off ground with a slide and a connecting A frame beam/swingset. Built a little ramp on the other end. It was only about 450-500 and way more sturdy than those cheap arse ones that most people get. I'm also not overly experienced with carpentry or construction. With a few weekends work you won't regret it.
