The seats can be personalised with names, quotes, dates etc. Emblems can also be added. Final proof will be sent prior to production to ensure you are happy with the design. We have chosen Blackbutt over Tas Oak and Vic Ash due to the being more hardy and weather resistant. The seats are quite heavy at approx 2kg.
Round swings are 260mm diameter and 35mm thick. 16mm Hempex rope is supplied in chosen length with an Oysterman's Stopper not at the bottom. 3m of rope comes standard. Other rope lengths available.
As we use Blackbutt hardwood all swings colourings will be different and have different characteristics. Colours range from blonde, brown and reddish tones. No two swings will be alike which makes them all that more unique.
We know the traditional tree swings are hung with either Sisal or Manilla natural fibre rope. However, these WILL not last. They last only approx 1yr if exposed to the elements and will rot. They can break and snap instantly without warning and can cause injuries. This is why I have chosen to use Hempex. Made to look and feel like traditional hemp rope but will not shrink in length or expand in diameter when wet. Retains the look and feel of a natural hemp rope - synthetic and hard wearing yet soft on the hands.
Hempex rope has a 2445kg break load so is suitable for all ages.
