In the last post I introduced the concept for the ultimate tire swing, a physical manifestation of the nostalgia and symbolism that makes certain kinds of fiction great. We went over the tools and supplies required and took a look at the big picture. Today, we get into the nitty gritty details.
Tire swings appear in a lot of fiction... usually in company with a tree house. They are evergreen symbols of childhood, nostalgia, and good memories. Maybe the most iconic tire swing is the one hanging from Tigger's house. Today we'll talk about how to make one.
