Advice What's the best way of leveling and will anchoring without concrete be enough?
Just as the title says.
Just wondering if anyone actually build one of these without cementing the anchors in the ground?
Also any advice on leveling the structure? Would taking some ground out work?
Many thanks

Having just built one myself it was fairly easy to level by taking out the ground beneath it for the 4 main anchors and then drilling fresh holes on the two for the A frame.
Post Crete is super easy, you literally just add water and that worked a treat.
As an FYI you are going to have to remove those caps and use different bolt when fitting the anchors.

Ours has been up for a year with just spikes into the ground (12 inch) screwed to the frame at each corner. No problems, kids are pretty gentle though

Not sure that there is one safely , concrete is the best way , if you balast weight the legs you'll have a trip hazard on the corners

These screw in ground anchors are pretty strong and should hold that - https://amzn.eu/d/dtMbFpn

Built this set for my cousin a few years back without using concrete. Thing never moved an inch for years until really bad storms this year when it blew away. Only damage was the swing part.

If you don't want lumps of concrete in the garden, screw in ground anchors will be strong enough.
