before anyone says it too
the pavers are secure as hell
theres no way they can dig under them to make them collapse or put weight on a corner to make it collaps... ive tested it a ton of times and also had em sitting outside for a while to see if they would crack or anything. |

I was going to ask about the pavers etc collasping after they dig around them but it looks like you have it under control.
They are fascinating to watch aren't they? They have so much energy and love chasing after the woodies!! Enjoy! |

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Dec-05 Location: mildura Age: 24 | | | | well heres round 2 of the design i put a ackie stack at each end
the ackie stack doesnt have any holes in the middle etc should it?
as you can see they have alot of depth of dirt to dig
thea ckie stacks are secure too at the bottom so they cannot under dig them and have them collapsing or anything like that |
