Introduction

A backyard swing set offers a terrific incentive for your kids to go outside and play. This DIY friendly swing set project requires materials easily found online or at your local home store. Assembly takes a couple of hours, and it will provide years of gravity defying fun for everyone.

Tools Required

Materials Required

• 4x4 x 8 ft. Cedar-tone treated pine (4)
• 4x6 x 10 ft. Cedar-tone treated pine (1)
• 5/16 x 2-1/2-in. screw eyes (4)
• 5/8 x 12-in. J bolts (4)
• Pairs of swing hangers (3)
• Swingset frame brackets (2)

Editors note: We used pre-fabricated frame brackets for this project. For the amount of time and skill it would take to build a sturdier swing set, they are totally worth the purchase. Also, this project does not include the actual swings. We encourage you to create your own or purchase separately.
