Like I said in my previous post, I'm looking to build one of these as well.

I'm currently thinking about a kit, just seems easier, and you can always customize if you want.

Who sells kits in Calgary?

So far I found:

Toys R Us
Canadian Tire
Totem
Costco

Toys R Us and Canadian Tire seem a little bit cheaper, though I'm assuming you are getting poorer quality stuff. I don't want to cheap out too much, as my oldest kids isn't even quite 3 yet, so It would be good if the thing can last (with a little maintenance of course) for 10 years.

Costco and Totem seem to sell the same brand, but Costco's online prices are a bit cheaper than Totem's (I imagine Totem would match). Those look like kits that don't include the wood. Is that correct? Anything else I need to know?

I'm assuming a place like Totem would help you with the wood requirements, even knowing exactly what you need.

Tell me all I need to know. I'm not looking for anything huge, just something to climb on, have a slide, and some swings, and generally entertain the kids for a long time.
