Fix it in place by screwing into the top board from below, through the EKETs top sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Voila: We&#8217;ve built our raised platform to play and relax on, but also created storage space especially for more bulky things. In hindsight we&#8217;re also very happy to have left an at least several centimeter wide margin: This already allowed us to turn that platform into a fortress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our DIY project #7 is for sure the biggest in volume and the most practical, too.
