I built this daybed swing for a wonderful wedding couple to get married under and the daybed/swing for after their wedding as a gift from their family.
I designed the whole thing! It’s solid cedar. The cedar was all ruff cut from a local mill. I sanded, joined, planned and routed every piece. All of it has heavy duty hardware. I hand drew and wood burned the Harley Davidson name and eagle into it. Each end piece was cut, and carved by me and my end style. They have Harley Davidson Bikes. I know now that you can get into trouble for copy rights, but I was not going around selling this swing to several people as a business.
