The story of how and why the Apollo DIY Swingset was born.The Apollo Fort/ Swing set was my third fort design and it shares the same footprint as the Triton, but a foot shorter at top rail and swing height to accommodate smaller yards. The footprint of any typical fort is not very large, the biggest problem for any yard is having space for swings. The Apollo was designed for families that wanted the big fort, but had a limited area for swing space. It also has a lower peak for the canopy top to slip in under the strictest HOA rules. This playset plan is versatile and provides the best options for add-ons that appeal to older climbers.

Designed in my backyard for greater adventures, the Apollo was born in Houston, TX. ("Space City USA") Named in honor of our American astronauts and the endeavors they represent, this Apollo does not need an explanation. Once you see your child rocket through the galaxy, swing through the jungles of the Amazon, or find treasure in the sandbox, it will be easy to see how a playset can help your children develop imagination skills, confidence, coordination, and physical agility. Use my story to make your own and enjoy.

Home made wooden playsets and swingsets, while designed and built with the best intentions, are under or over-engineered, made with entrapment areas, exposed bolts, or inferior hardware. Why do more work than you have to? All of my DIY playset plans are refined for simplicity and voluntarily meet or exceed all safety standards set forth by the American Society for Testing and Materials and the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
