i'm thinking about building a wooden swing set for my grandkids (in my

You may also want to consider the manufactured wood they use for
decking. I rebuilt a garden chair, and the stuff will last forever.
It's grey in color, simulating already weathered cedar. Also, no
splinters.

If you do go with cedar, I suggest leaving it natural, otherwise you
just rope yourself into yearly maintenance.
