DIY Swing

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This DIY Swing was a fun Build! It's made of Eastern Red Cedar and will last for years to come outdoors. My neighbor came to me wanting a nice swing for the back yard and it needed to have the arbor along with it.
If you Would like to build the swing yourself, i have the plans available on my website.

    They have so far. The brads are really there just to let the glue dry. The glue is always stronger than the wood. You can reference MANY YT videos for confirmation of that.

    Hey Brother I'm wanting to use your plans to build this for an arch at my only daughters wedding. I wanted something they could use that would be more then a one time deal. The problem is I made a mistake on the email and didn't realize it untill it was to late. My question is. Do you mail copies of the plans or are they sent via email. If they are sent email. Is there a way to correct this problem so I can still receive the plans I paid for, or do I have to bite the bullet, and buy another set. I know this is an old post, but I hope you still get it. Couldn't figure out how else to get ahold of you. I'm not very internet savvy unfortunately, but I'm working on it. Thank you in advance, and hope to hear from you soon.

    Any links to the hardware you used, chain size, etc.? Nice swing, but I'm looking for a different design so I didn't buy you plans. For instance, I'd like the chain to NOT go through the arms like many do, including yours. That's just a personal preference, not a criticism of your design. Also, I'd like to add a swingdown console in the middle. Thanks for posting. Mark

    All the hardware came from tractor supply. The actual hardware i used is no longer available from them, but there are several other options available. But if you buy the chain from them, the load capacity is printed on every chain, i 3X whatever i believe the max load may be, so if you use a different design, that may change as well. Thanks for checking it out 👍🏻

    I’m really thinking about giving this a go, but before I buy the plans, one concern is that I don’t have a planer or a jointer. I also wonder if I’m gonna have to glue the boards together like you did or if my lumber yard will have what I need. Do the plants call for the gluing of boards together? I know this is a lot of newbie questions, but I am a noob. 🥹

  • @dimensionswoodworks

    If you can get S4S lumber from your lumber yard (many offer this service) you don’t need a planer and jointer. If you can get 4x4s in whatever species you plan to use, there’s no need to laminate (glue the boards together) the plans just call for the final dimensions of the boards so you can use whatever method works for your situation. I promise, you are more capable than you think! Just do it !!! Happy building!
