- 1). Lay the two 6-foot wooden beams side-by-side, three feet apart and on their 2-inch side.
- 2). Fit the 3-foot-long wooden beams between the 6-footers, beginning flush at one end and in intervals of 2 feet apart. These will act as support beams for the finished bridge.
- 3). Nail the four support beams in place with two nails into each end, through the 4-inch side of the longer beams. While hammering, make sure the support beams stay flush with the longer beams.
- 4). Lay the wooden panel measuring 6 feet long on top of the bridge. Start at one end and work your way down, nailing it flush against the ladder-like structure you've built, including the support beams.
- 5). Lay your bridge across the gap you'd like to traverse, and make sure the edges of the bridge won't slip into the gap.
