Best I can come up with right now:
http://www.ehow.com/how_4500861_make-rope-bridge.html

Personally, I don't like ehow. Too much text, too few illustrations.

I hate the "limited time only" crap that is MBA. Maybe they should go OOP.

The bridge was long OOP when I got it but was lucky enough to find a member of TMP parting with one, but it wasn't cheap! Still well worth it's weight in gold.

Excellent! Looks like a great game with stunning terrain and miniatures!

Don't forget to check out the blog "Payne's Landing":

http://payneslanding.weebly.com/rope-bridge.html.

They have a section showing the MBA bridge plus one of their own. Overall that blog is amazing and inspiring!

That there is one sweet looking jungly table! Looking forward to playing some Gripping Tales when it's ready for public consumption.

Which may be never as I only ever intended it to be a party game or house set. Just for the lads in the group.

Any chance of some close-up shots of the rope bridge from different angles (and possibly from below)?

After looking at the link above, I have an idea about making one myself, and I need to see the ropeworks

I think I can get my daughters to make some 'ropes' out of string in the right thickness, but how to arrange it..?

Great looking board and game.

I too missed out on the MBA rope bridge! I've never understood limited edition items. If something sells restock it and make money!

Argonor- I made a rope bridge a number of months ago. They are not hard to make. I used wire and wood (Maybe a title, wire and wood)

Will dig it out and photograph it.

Actually looking at the handmade one on Payne's Landing is probably a better way to see how it's done. I'll try and sort out some pics if I can in the coming weeks if I can. I don't have a camera currently, and my photographer buddy who took those pics is currently on vacation.
