My 13 foot tall heavy duty commercial swingset is here!

Here it is in construction. It weighs 360lbs without chains or seats.

Don't you have your own topic?

Yes i do. But it would not bump when I add a new topic or edit a topic.

it'll bump when you post in it.

I hope you plan on setting that in concrete.

I will absolutely set all 6 legs 2 feet into Quickcreat footers.

Is that you in the pictures, cool5?

[mkingy]

So if you've got embedment of 2 foot will it only be a 11 foot tall swingset?

The legs are 15 feet long. Yes that is cool5 in the pic.

[Mikey]

So 2 foot deep, assuming a 12 inch circumference is about 180 lbs per leg. Hopefully you don't plan on having any riders pull more then a few G's or that puppy's going to jump out of the ground.

That is what AAA State of Play requires for park swing sets. The instructions say to have two feet down in the cement. The legs are 2-3/8" diameter.

[TTD03]

Yes but you aren't a State of Play, this is in your backyard, you can do whatever you want with it.

When the swing set is finished and installed, I want to climb up to the top red parts and sit up there on the night of fourth of July to watch the neighbors fireworks.

Isn't that dangerous.

Could you film some video so we can see how it holds up with you on it. I think some of us are interests in such a set.

I do want someone to video me pole dancing like a stripper on my swing set.

You should get a massive ball pit that you can leap from your swing set in to.

I just came back from a playground at my town. My mother measured the distance between the end of the chain and the ground and the bottom of my bottom to the ground to get measurements for my 13 foot tall swing set. I also slipped the two tall tube slides and a couple of other smaller slides.

[TTD03]

Sounds fun.

I now have all of the swingset 2 foot deep footers dug and each one has a paver in the bottom. I am SO SO UNBELIEVABLY EXCITED TO STRIPPER POLE DANCE VERY SOON! I really wish I had the poles on my 13 foot tall swingset up right now. I went on a straight pole 8 foot swingset last Monday but I totally forgot to think about dancing on the poles.

Now dig a pond and put splash fins on the bottom of the seat.

[TTD03]

^^ Very nice.
^ Lol!

The 13 foot tall swingset will be raised tomorrow morning! We are having a neighbor coming over with a backhoe and using it to raise it to a standing position. I guess I can be pole dancing real soon!

Are you planning on taking a video? (no pedo)
