Default Model A Tire Swing

Low tech fun for everyone. 19"or 21 " works fine. Blackwall or whitewall. Drill a hole in the bottom to let the rain water out. These work better for kids than modern tires.

Swings like that were good enough for us. Loads of fun and cheap.

That is excellent. I had one of those when I was a kid. It got a lot of use.
