This HUGE 'porch' swing has great sentimental value for my husband and I... long story. I wanted to make an A frame for it in the yard to swing on it. I think I've changed my mind.
Can I make this bench 'swing' into a glider? I know somebody out there in DIY land knows... please share with me.

I can't find exact plans for what you want to do but the two above ideas may help. Also if you know someone who is good with wood, maybe they can do this for you. Good luck
Hi Cindy, this article explains the process, hope it helps! https://www.doityourself.com/stry/how-to-build-a-porch-glider
Here are some plans for wood glider benches so I'm assuming you can adjust them to work with the bench you've got

This one even begins with an already made bench!
