  • Join us as we DIY a tree swing in our yard. We used some reclaimed wood for the seat of the swing. The only material we had to purchase was the rope, which was about $50 because the tree branch was so high up!

    My grandpa use to have one of these and I would swing on it everyday. I loved that swing it was so smooth to swing on and would go really high. Rob did a great job with this.

    Now that's the *best* kind of swing! In playgrounds today, they have those rubber seats that hug your butt and are sooooo UNcomfortable. Safer, maybe, but not nearly as much fun! Good work, Rob! ♥♥♥ (Selah is such a cutie. ♥)

    A man can never have enough scrap wood! I recently bought an outdoor storage shed, needed shelves installed; my dad’s attic had just what I needed! 😊

    *HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, LINDSEY❣️💜😉 Great intro and camera work, Selah‼️🥰 Wonderful job on the swing, Rob, and I liked that you burned the wood for longevity protection of the wood itself. Not many Americans are aware of that technique; KUDOS‼️👌🖤*

    When we moved to so. IL from Chicago, our Dad made 2 swings in trees for us. We swang on them for years, until I was way high coming down and the rope broke. I probably fell 20' on my back. Knocked the wind out of me. No Dr, no ER...lol just pick her up dust her off. I also ran around the corner, fell through the open cellar door, bouncing off the stone wall on the way down. My Dad and Grandpa were down there in a split second. MOM 👩 screamed. No broken bones, no scratches. I think my guardian angel 😇 wears a football helmet ⛑ 🪖

    I can't seem to find a video that shows how you anchor the rope at the top of the tree without climbing it so that you are making the swing like you do with just a single rope on each side. I saw you throw it up and you had two strands dangling on each side but you end up with one strand. So I still don't know how to attach it at the top.

    • @ourdiyary
      @ourdiyary  2 місяці тому

      We threw one really long rope over the branch. The two "sides" that dangled down are the two sides of the swing (to hold onto.) Does that make sense?

    • @Alexandra4JC
      @Alexandra4JC 2 місяці тому

      @@ourdiyary Thanks for trying but if you threw just one long rope and both ends dangled didn’t the top end in a “V”? It seems that would make the swing spin. Maybe I’m just not understanding. I don’t know. But thanks!
