Project Information
Well it started out as a repair, the seat slats were thin ( 3/16" ) so i decided to remake them thicker at
( 1/2") thick, same thing with the backrest slats. Yeah well that was just the beginning. The swing was so aged and weathered that the wood was so soft and there was no way it would hold up. So I ended up rebuilding the whole thing, just wish I'd taken a picture of the orginal swing before I started rebuilding. This swing is 66 " wide big enough to hold 3 people comfortably, they just don't make them like this any more.
