Just run the chain through them like you're supposed to--it makes the

I agree ... running the front chains though the arm rests, and down to
the seat frame along the front two posts, makes it very difficult to
flip the swing, something we were good at as kids.

That aside, Sonny's cypress swing is an absolutely beautiful swing
design. Gonna have to keep the photo away from Linda, or I'll be copying
it before this week is through.

We are currently battling on whether to keep this one.

I want to replace it with a smaller, modern, metal yard swing with
canopy, but she wants me to either make one out of wood that suits me
(this frame is too big for the location for my tastes), or salvage it
in some manner.

She sees Sonny's photo, the battle is over ...
