RIDE THE WAVE!

"Ride The Wave" Instructions Included with Purchase of Two Eclipse Swing Set Brackets:

When you purchase 2 Eclipse Swing Set Brackets we will email you the PDF file instructions for building the "Ride The Wave" swing set, along with the full, step-by-step video instructions. If you would like just the instructions, without the brackets, you can purchase it on the Etsy website at https://www.etsy.com/listing/4439576174 . You can follow the "Ride The Wave" instructions to build either that set, or a more traditional 3-swing set for now, leaving the top lumber pieces off the top of the beam. You can always add the pieces one day when you're needing to change things up a BIT !!!
