On the pipe that was cut in half did they put any covering on top of where they cut? I would be concerned if that edge was sharp.

Very interesting observations, I was thinking of making a center tower that could double as a house/ fort, with the slide on top and swings going out on one side and monkey bars going out other side. I can't wrap my head around spending $40,000 on a playground set, but to each his own. If someone didn't spend the money you wouldn't had the job at that company.
