swing - gefertigt aus Materialien die ausgedient haben

swing
 
Nowadays, many materials and product are sorted out directly after the production due to various reasons.
They get declared as not usable anymore.
This happens because of a lack in perfection, over-production or cutting-waste that occurs during different working-processes. Consequently they are withdrawn the industrial market and disposed.
This means, various materials and already finished products, which I took to manufacture "swing" are new
or/and still from good quality. But because of regulations and economic efficiency not accessible to the consumer. This is an overhasty conclusion, since all these materials/products have great potential in it.
Cutting-waste, products with lack in perfection and as well overproduced products are from good quality and need to be taken in a different context to let them speak for themselves.
 
 
Materials:
rope: The climbing rope is brand-new. It is the rest-pieces from a whole fresh produced role of rope. This left-over is factored for savety.
heating pipe: The pipe is left over material. It is the cutting-waste of 3-5meter pieces and in most cases are not being used anymore.
wine-barrel: The wine-barrels get sorted out after a period of 3-4 years. Since it it oak wood, the wood is still from good quality and the bending of the wine-barrel is a plus in the "swing"-production.
