    Where's the asphalt underneath? I shit you not, my elementary school had all the equipment on asphalt in the early 90s.

    Starting truck with a screwdriver, setting posts in concrete, welding... lots of manliness in this video. Plus, awesome timelapse!

    cool idea! The girl was making the top go back and forth about 4 ". Better brace! Of course you will, I know you will! In 1960 I was 11 and We had a trapeze set so it was 10 feet off the ground, and ,man! I had a blast flopping down with my ankles to the side, wrapped around the rope on each end of the pipe! It was where I learned all I knew in gymnastics, and rings, later.

      I actually welded up some spider legs and that thing is stable! Check out some of the later vids and you can see how it settled in

      Woot! That’s what I’m talking about. I found a playground in Ojai California that pretty much had every single banned, unsafe piece of playground equipment known to man. I had more fun on that then I think any grown person should

    When I was but a wee child, my father taught me how to start the mower just like you started your truck. You never grow out of it.

    John, there was a LOT of deflection on top when you were swinging. I think you might need some supports or braces.

    I built an even taller swing for my kids when they were that-kids. One swing. The frame had to be tethered to the ground with tension ropes. I tried riding it and nearly threw up.
