Wood Swing Sets
Does your child dream of navigating a ship on a dark stormy sea as a wooden-legged treasure-seeking pirate? Does your little boy yearn to heroically lead his troops through battle fields? Does your young girl ever fantasize of being the beautiful princess welcoming a courting prince-charming? No problem! Wood swing sets can make it all happen. Children’s interests vary, of course, but it has been proven time and time again that the larger wood swing sets with more options allow children to grow into, not out of them. In fact, many parent and grandparents have as much fun with wood swing sets as the kids do.

There is a wide variety of wood and lumber that wood swing sets can be made out of but nothing offers the superior quality that Con Heart Redwood does. Wood will not fade or crack like some plastics can due to exposure to the elements. Wood does not rust or bend like metal can. Still, ordinary wood swing sets can and do decay, rot and splinter. But not Con Heard Redwood. The only truly superior materials for constructing long-lasting wood swing sets are the naturally decay resistant, virtually splinter-free Con Heart Redwoods that safely hold their structure year after fun-filled year. Wood swing sets designed and construction of Con Heart Redwood are so superior that most of their manufacturers offer lifetime warranties.

Safety comes first, safety comes last, and safety comes always. A swing set that leaves children covered with scrapes, cuts or splinters is no fun at all. Wood swing sets constructed from Con Heart Redwood are virtually in effect splinter-free and do not play a part in such unhappy mishaps. Moreover, there is no need to treat the wood with CCA (Copper Chromium Arsenate), a hazardous and even life-threatening chemical compound used on all wood swing sets, when using Con Heart Redwoods—a fact which further ensures that children’s playtime is safe and trouble-free.

To go above and beyond to ensure children’s safety while at play in, around, through and on top of Con Heart Redwood swing sets they use:

• Half inch rounded corners throughout each swing set to prevent scrapes and cuts
• Hand-sanded surfaces for added safety
• Recessed bolts and hardware that are kept away from tiny fingers
• Plastisol-coated chains keep tender skins from being pinched
• High-sided slides to keep little ones from “tipping” as they play
• Interlocking flat steps that enhance surefootedness and prevent slipping
• Coated safety handles to increase balance and facilitate climbing
• No visible metal plates or connectors within reach, to keep hands cool and free from injury

On the one hand, wood swing sets can be very simple and basic or spectacular splendors and everything imaginable between. If, on the other hand, what you are looking for is not to be found in this vast selection there is always the option of custom designing your own. The end result of your customized wood swing set will provide your children with the happy fun and joyous childhood they want, and the exceptionally engineered long-lasting and hazard-free development for your children that you are looking for.

Please note that all wood, used in outdoor projects, is subject to the natural process of “checking”. As the wood ages, tension develops due to shrinkage and it splits to relieve tension. These splits or cracks are known as “checks”. The “checks” will not go deeper than the heart and will not affect the structural performance or integrity of the wood. In fact, it is believed that these characteristics only add to the natural beauty of your wood products.

And everyone will live happily ever after.
