***SEAT ONLY, NO ROPE*** CAPTAIN AMERICA! USA MADE!! We though that Captain America fans deserved a great swing, so we made it happen! There isn't anything like this offered. Here is the last tree swing you'll ever buy! This is the same extremely strong material that expensive watercraft are made of and will last 10 lifetimes! Just like our other sparkling fiberglass tree swings, this is termed "jeweled" because when in direct sunlight it sparkles through it's high gloss finish. It has been multi-coated with clear gloss all-weather protective coatings to give it this stunning appeal. This 15" x 1.5" swing seat can take a load too, unlike some of the cheapo plastic round disk swings that you see on the market for playsets. The center hole is 1.5". This seat can take the load of the heaviest adult. We will ship UPS with tracking. A Fiberglass Tree Swings original. #001FIB-15H Which swing knots to tie? If the tree limb is accessible via ladder or climbing, then for the first part (around the tree limb), you want to tie a "round turn and two (or three) half hitches". It's a very common knot because it works. It keeps the loaded line as straight as possible but offers high security as well. Another knot, the "bowline", will work, but if you use it, the loop may stay wide open and on every arc of the tree swing and it will rub against the bark on the limb. Friction is the enemy. You want a knot that will grip the limb tight and not allow the rope to move at all. The two loops plus the half hitches grips the limb tight and only gets tighter.If the tree limb is not accessible via ladder or climbing because it is too high, then the solution for attaching ropes to the tree limb is a Running Bowline knot, a type of slipknot. A benefit of a slipknot is the rope won't strangle the tree limb as it grows. Note that you can also use this option if the tree limb is accessible via ladder or climbing. Use a weaver hand tossed throw weight and throw line to get your rope fed over the limb. A 12 oz. weight should work fine, but heavier weights are needed for higher limbs. Really, really high limbs may need a launcher if you can't get the throw weight and rope over the tree limb. Once you get the line fed over and back down to you, you will likely need to tie a slip type of knot to adhere you rope to the limb.Finally, for the second part (through the swing seat), you will want to tie a "double overhand stopper knot"
