Cage pit
Posted by Tanos on Wed 2 Sep 09, 10:19 PM
Over the Bank Holiday weekend, I built and assembled a wood-lined cage pit at Bridgewood.
This is a roughly 3ft cube, with wooden floor and walls, and a cage door across the top. I've not had a chance to try it yet, but it's good to have some secure "storage" on site now Having said that, most of the time it will be storing equipment in the dry (a couple of cement bags in buckets and some wood at the moment) rather than submissives.
It's set about 2ft into the ground on the edge of the Glade, in a mound of earth left over from levelling the access roadway. This reduces the risk of waterlogging in wet weather, as the floor is roughly level with the general ground level. Normally, it will be protected by the roofing-felt covered top in this picture, which should keep rain and small animals out!
Even though I've treated it, I expect the plywood to rot over time, but I hope to get a couple of seasons out of the boards before I have to think about renewing any of them.
