Swing Set

The other day I saw a really creative way to make a swing set.  It held 4 swings, and even had a little kiddie slide off to the side.  Our homeschool group went on a field trip to a Pumpkin/ Gourd patch which is run by the Grandparents of this family run business.  So here are the pictures of what I got.  This gives you an idea of how to build it.  In my mind, not only is this super creative, it saves space, and is actually easy enough to re-build for yourself.

Here is the layout of the Swing: 3 pieces of wood,
4 metal strips, 8 hooks, 4 swings, etc

Each of the pieces of wood are roughly this wide.
 So a 6x6 or an 8x8.
Here is the layout of the hooks for the 4 swings.

Here is the metal strip with screws bolting the top wood into place.
