Me and my freinds are going to biuld a little free ride park at our local trails we ahve been okayed. The only problem is we want a teeder totter and we cant use any nails or spikes, and we want the TT to last not just fall apart. How would we do this?

no nails or spikes....use nuts and bolts...drill some holes and then bolt the sucker together

Sorry I gues I didint make it clear There is to be no metal used at all. The head of the trail compartment said everything has to be organic wich is basicaly wood and dirt I just wanted to know if there was some type of wood formation that could be made easily and would hold strong.

internet?not sure im tired it seemed like a good idea at the time like using a snow blower to build a drop outa dirt, works really wellSalute

try wooden pegs, it works really well in dry area's

Yeah but I dont live in a dry area

you might try it with a good wood glue and tapered peg but I have only tried it in a dryer area.

well, either make bolts from wood or build stuff out of dirt, just because its dirt dowsnt mean its djs, let me explain, do you see dirt jumpers hitting high speed 30 ft gaps and dropping of cliffs?
or just use a lever system where the teeter pivots on a log with two groves to keep it pivoting straight, and somehow put some weights on one side to reset

i have the solution to the teeter totter problem.
take a plank of wood, in the shape of your TT.
then, somehow attach a big post through it the long way
then, just build the supports out of dirt.

let me know if you have other problemss
