Description
Setting up swings and other hanging toys sure is hard when you don’t have a good branch to put them on! Slackers has solved the insolvable with this Build-a-branch kit! The “branch” is fashioned from small steel beams held onto the tree with rachet straps and rachets. All the hardware needed for set up is found in the set. The 360 swivel which attaches to the end is perfect for movement in any direction! The tree receiving the branch should have a diameter of twelve to a maximum of twenty-four inches, and you will need twelve feet of tree trunk free of branches. Holds up to 500 pounds. This invention is perfect for holding your outdoor swings!
Publisher's Description of Slackers Build-A-Branch
No branch? No problem!
Build-a-Branch allows you to turn more trees into a swing tree! Gone are the days of depending on a specific type of tree branch to hang a swing in the backyard for the kids (or you!). Nearly 50% of tree branches in front and back yards are not compatible to hang swings from – until now!
Slackers Build-a-Branch is as simple and straightforward as its name, allowing you to create a strong tree branch that holds up to 500 pounds, on any healthy tree. The 360-degree swivel attachment allows kids to push and spin each other for non-stop fun and adventure in the yard!
Installation takes 30-60 minutes with its easy strap and ratchet system connecting at 2 points on the tree. The recommended installation process requires two adults, one 10 foot ladder, one hammer and a 12 foot measuring tape. Any swing hung from Build-a-Branch should hang 40” from the tree and be at least 24” off of the ground.
