This set is built to last! Brackets are cut from clean raw steel and will rust with exposure to the elements, adding to the rustic charm.
ASSEMBLY PROCESS:
Set comes with detailed step by step photo instructions, power drill is required to drill holes in the wood Beams. You will also need a saw to cut the one 4x4 cross support, or have your local hardware store cut for you when you purchase the lumber. You will need 6 each 4x4 Wood Beams; Red Wood or Cedar is recommended. The set can be used for 2 swings or 3 swings:
• 2 Swings- 6 each 8ft long 4x4 Beam or
• 3 Swings- 1 each 12ft long 4x6 Beam is recommended for top and 5 each 8ft long 4x4 Beams
The brackets will work for both size beams. The extra 4ft allows for extra spacing for the swings, the 4x6 gives added strength to the top cross beam to handle the load of 3 swings. Only one wood beam cut required for the side supports, if you are unable to do at home your local lumber yard is happy to assist. The brackets serve as the template for drilling your holes. The solid bolts are key to the design, other sets use screws which tend to strip out and wiggle lose with continued use and changes in the wood. Our solid bolt design allows for adjustment and tightening for years to come so you never have to deal with wobbly bracket. The set is designed to sit on top of the ground with no attachment required.
RUSTING/PATINA PROCESS:
Our brackets come in RAW METAL STATE. Recipe for Rust Accelerator spray is available with purchase. The recipe is 3 common household items you mix and spray until desired rust color is achieved. This is optional, your set will rust naturally with exposure to water and sunshine.
