Summary: Disappointed
Review: I thought this was going to be a great book on designing a play area for the kids, but I was truly disappointed. There are great ideas in this book, but anyone looking for a "build it yourself" guide needs to keep looking as there are no directions to be found; only listings on how to order the "blueprints" of the various items you wanted directions on how to build in the first place.
As I said, this book has some great ideas, just no directions included.

Summary: Assembly instructions are terrible
Review: I'm in the middle trying to build the Three Bin Composter in this book. It says the "complete instructions" are in the book for free-- one of the few plans in here that you don't have to order. There is a LOT of missing information, and I think that some of the dimensions listed in the materials section are incorrect. This is pretty simple, so I'll just guess my way through it, but I would NOT use this company if you are looking for plans for something more complictated.

Summary: Book of Drawings
Review: This book merely showed drawings of things you could buy plans to build. Among the things you can't build with this book is a huge castle. Who on earth would buy a book to build backyard castle? I bought this book expecting several plans for building tool/garden sheds. What I got was some ideas on what a shed could look like. I get more insight every time I look out my kitchen window at my neighbors' sheds. I am not even going to try to resell this book, because I wouldn't do that to anyone.
