How to build agility equipment book

I have it, but havent had any real use for it. I was hoping for something easy for making a dogwalk and aframe, but the two options were for steel or solid wood. The steel option was going to get expensive, and solid wood is too heavy.
I ended up going and signing up for the agility equipment yahoo group, and found good plans for an aframe and dogwalk with pvc bases, which makes for cheaper cost, and makes it easier to move than solid wood would be. That's my bday present next month- an aframe and dogwalk built from wood and pvc

I JUST ordered (dang and as I type I think I forgot to go in via the Nations :( ) or I would have added this to my list just to see. The reviews seem to be either great or terrible though. 14.99 someone here needs to be a guinea pig and get it for review :biggrin2:

I have not seen anything similar though so it instantly qualifies for best in category, and worst.

Oooo, they have it available in a Kindle edition. That means free sampling of the book so I can get a better look at it first.

(For those who don't have an actual Kindle, you can download the Kindle app for your smart phone or PC/Mac and take advantage of the same functionality.)

ETA: OK, that wasn't worth the time to download the sample :(

Does that Yahoo group exist? Or do you still have the plans? I could use a home made dog walk, a-frame and even teeter to help CJ learn and to proof Edan's contacts.

It does still exist. It's called agility equipment. I do have both the files though, and have uploaded them.
A-Frame:

For the A-Frame, it's for a 6' one instead of 9', but if you add another section of PVC to it, and buy longer pieces of wood, it can easily be used to make the full size a-frame, which is my plan (you'd need more materials than listed if you choose to do that as well).

The dog walk should be good and sturdy, since it is made to be able to support even a st bernard :)

I do know they also have teeter plans, but I dont have them saved to my computer. I ended up getting one for $350 from a guy that makes them in Ohio for Christmas.
