A children's DIY television series hosted by Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini which gives children the dens of their dreams.
Building each den is a real team effort, so with the help of expert designers and builders the Dengineers team create extraordinary structures - from a den with an eco-friendly water wheel to a castle den with a real life drawbridge. Sometimes there鈥檚 a design challenge to overcome along the way, but that won鈥檛 stop the team as they apply science and technology to solve the problems.
- Find out how angles can help snow proof a den
- Learn how a barrel and chain can pull a perfect drawbridge
- Discover how to create a 360 degree revolving roof
