Wood Set
Take Into Consideration Durability, Budget and Most Important Safety When Shopping For a Swing Set
Consumers can usually choose from wood, steel or plastic construction. Some of the newer playsets on the market combine plastic and wood which creates a fantastic looking swing set. KidWise is one of the manufacturers that combines this technology in there line of Monkey Playsystems. Gorilla Playsets also has this combination in there Blue Ridge Series line for residential backyards. All plastic units are safer for younger children (such as toddlers in Pre-School) but usually are not recommended for older Kids. Step 2 and Little Tikes are two manufacturers who specialize in this type of toddler unit.
Wooden swing sets seem to be the favorite choice among consumers due to the several factors, one being the strength and structural integrity of the unit. Most of the wood sets are built with 4 x 4 corner posts for the forts (deck framing) with strong top beams with iron ductile swing hangers. Wood playsets can compliment the backyard decor and tend to blend in with nature better than metal swing sets. Overall, the last 3 to 5 years, wooden swing sets have become the one number choice due to the changes made in the playground industry regarding safety, construction, design and quality. These residential playsystems present the largest play options for children and the configurations are endless.
Metal swing sets are another option but it is important to pay attention to the type of steel used. Choices are carbon steel, galvanized steel or painted steel and you will need to pay attention to what is advertised so you purchase a good metal set. The Kettler brand utilizes the highest carbon steel that will not bow with use. Strong, powder coated steel frame finished in primary vibrant colors. Special double coated polyester power coat finish that is warranted for 3 years against fading. Metal Swing Sets do offer some of the same play options that are found on wood units such as slides, swings, monkey bars, gliders and do not offer play forts, fireman's poles or climbers. Metal is thought to be the strongest option on the industry. However, it is important to purchase a quality set and the legs of the unit should always be cemented into the ground. Make sure you purchase high carbon steel or galvanized steel so the chances of it rusting will be reduced.
When choosing a play set, do not pick the one that is the best looking or the first one you see. Be very cautious though the selection process as the number of playsystems on the market is extensive. Take your time, makes notes and research each play set and manufacturer. There is a lot more to picking a wooden swing set than simply purchasing the first model that looks great. As an educated consumer you will be able to select the right swing set for your family based on safety, quality and your budget.

Should I buy the harmony wood needle set or nickel plated set from KnitPicks?
I want to buy a set of circular needles. I prefer wooden needles, but they cost more and I don't mind nickel. I'm also worried that the wood will splinter.
Which one should I get, fellow knitters? Thanks!
http://www.knitpicks.com/needles/Knitting_Needle_Sets__L300301.html
i would go with the wooden ones. i think i am hard on my nickel plated needles but i found that after use they are slightly bent also i noticed that the plating was coming off the tips. i like the wooden ones because the wool just seems to slide off or grip on to the needles just when i need it to do just that!
