I want to build a long, plastic slide to run down the side of a hill for my kids to use while camping (on private property). I can't find any sites that sell plastic pieces and/ or bolts to do this. Anyone out there know any sites I can contact for info and help? It's gotta be possible.... I'd also like to run a zip line through the campsite. Any ideas? I appreciate your time and knowledge! Thanks!

PROBLEM IS ... ANYTHING LIKE REGULAR SLID MATERIAL, IN THE LENGTHS YOU'RE LOOKING FOR WILL KILL YOUR WALLET!!
YOU REALLY HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE BOX!!!! CONSIDER LARGE PVC PIPE, BISECTED LONGWAYS...
FORMICA OVER WOOD, WITH 1 1/2" THIN WALL PIPE SCREWED TO PLYWOOD TO MAKE IT INTO ONE PIECE, THE PLYWOOD CAN BE SEAMLESSLY CONNECTED WITH A CORRUGATED FASTENER, & OFFSET GLUE THE FORMICA TO COVER THE SEAM....
A LITTLE SILICON & BURLAP SACK, & ZOOM.......... YOU BETTER BUY HELMENTS!

I went to Goggle on line and found alot of sites to visit for plastic slides , you can get in touch with any of them I am sure and they will help you. Something you might consider if you will have others playing on it try getting someone to advertise on it or beside it to help with the cost. Just something to think about.

look under plastic manufacturers in the yellow pages. don't think a material slipery enough is avail unless you wet it.
