My kids wanted a swing set in our new backyard ๐ I finally gave in and built one for them.
I used a 16โ 4X6 for the beam and 4X4โs for the legs. After I built it I realized that cutting the grass was going to be a pain so I decided to frame it out. I used 2 16โ 6X6โs plus a 6โ piece on each side and 14โ 6X6โs on each end. Once the w**d barrier was laid down I put the mulch down. 60!!! Bags later it was finished. After lumber, hardware, swings, trampoline, w**d barrier, mulch and solar lights weโre around $1,000 but itโs completely worth it once they all got out there and were laughing and playing!
