I visited a factory and looked around for something to make. I found some rope and a wooden armchair and decided to make a swing as there was a high beam on the ceiling.
Ron and Richard helped me put it up.
It took a little time to work out how to tie it securely.

Comment by Joe September 14, 2010 @ 11:48 amas clever and cool as it is, i have to admit the overall effect is kind of ominous. if you objectively look at the picture of an old wooden chair tied to rope in a gray, seemingly abandoned old building, you feel like you’re walking into a horror film. not at all meant to be negative – i completely admire your creativity.

Comment by Dominic (admin) November 1, 2010 @ 6:13 pmI like the concept but the rope should pass under the seat, if doing this at home, to avoid bums on the floor if the glue fails.
Comment by Rufus April 7, 2011 @ 11:43 pmI don’t understand, there isn’t any glue.
Comment by Dominic (admin) April 8, 2011 @ 6:03 pmI think what Rufus was referring to was the glue that they use to hold the chair together. It’s a great and “creepy” design and I love it. I can’t help imagining what story might go along with something like this.
I’m enjoying myself looking at your 30 days of Speed Creating. What a great way to jump start your creativity! Way to go! You’re a genius for sure!
