My Happy Little errr....Yard Swing!
In honor of Sig Monkey and his Happy Little TIRE swing, I wanted to start a thread showing your swings.



I dug the post holes last year! I finally got around to completing it over the past few days.
4"x6" pressure treated uprights, 3' deep, pressure treated cross braces, and today's purchase, 5' Amish made swing. Probably $320 in materials, the swing was $230, but exceptionally well made.

I had to do some adjusting, on the chain , originally the seat was too upright, reclined it back one chain length, and its perfect. I love sitting out on it in the evenings, looking across to the open fields. Just a simple swing, what more could you want? A tire?

Post your swings,tire swings, porch swings or gliders.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

It does put an interesting perspective on JHE's interest in enslaving Scarlett Johansson. Not that there is anything wrong with that. As long as I get pictures. Of Scarlett Johansson, not JHE, of course.

But there are no cross supports, and the corners look like they are held together with tension screws. Structurally, it doesn't look that sturdy to me.

I'm quite sure that this is not the direction the OP wanted the thread to go, but I have to say that I laughed my ass off JHE. Nice work.
