1 3/8" diameter rungs spaced 12 inches apart center to center. The rungs are made in Douglas-fir for structural reasons, the rest of the monkey bar will be made in the wood grade of your preference.

Sheldon's Monkey Bar detailed information

There are holes every 2 inches to adjust the bar height for use for anyone from 6 months to adult; the tallest setting for the bars is 80 inches off the ground. A 1x3 trim piece is included to cover the holes when you are not adjusting the bar height. The internal width of the bars is 18 inches (the width of the bars in between the frame).

Any of the dimensions can be altered to fit your needs. For example, if you'd like the Monkey Bar set made for Adults or Teenagers, just let us know and we'll build a set taller, wider and stronger.
