Spring/Summer Relaxation
At Its Finest!
 
You’ll never find a Porch Swing of this quality at retail !  
It’s built to last a lifetime -- all in a single weekend !

STEP 19:
 
Attach the back ends of the arm rests (D) to the outsides of the two back supports, using two 1-1/2-inch wood screws (counterbored, if necessary) on each arm end.

STEP 20:
 
Cut the slats you removed previously so they fit around the backs of the arm rests (D) and the arm posts (F).  Replace the slats and screw them back into position.

STEP 21:
 
Attach the eye bolts as indicated.
 
NOTE: When tightened, the eyes should be positioned vertically so the closed portions of their loops are at the top.

STEP 22:
 
Finish with polyurethane or the finish of your choice.

STEP 23:
 
Hang securely with chain and enjoy!
