Yes, i won’t say that building this type of grill can be difficult but when it comes to putting the puzzle pieces together then it might be complex for you.
So, i would recommend you follow these steps to built a schwenker for your house.
Laying Down the Structure:
First, you lay down the structure of the grill and the structure is all about the tripod stand that you create it.
Materials to Built Tripod:

- You will need three 64” of poles that are made with wooden materials.
- Then you will need a paracord for binding them together.
Materials to Hand the Grill:

- One 171/2” of Grill.
- With 48” long chains.
- Three 24” long chains additional.
- Four carabiners.

Building the Tripod
Step 1: The Clove Hitch:
In the first step of building a tripod, you need to create small hoops in the rope and that should be two and both of them should be created in right over left motion.
Then you need to combine those hoops in the position of right behind left. That should create a tough loop circle.
Step 2: Tie The Hitch:
Then you should tie tightly the hitch that you created on the outside pole of the one pod of three.
Step 3: Weave The Rope:
Then you should weave the additional leftover rope after tieing it onto the other poles that are present in a simultaneous motion.
Step 4: Tighten The Connection:
At this stage, the ropes are holding the pods, and to tighten their grip you should revolve the rope in a specific manner that is through inner pole to outer pole for better grip.
Step 5: Another Clove Hitch:
In the end, when everything is completed you should finish the tripod process with another hitch clove that you will create in the same manner.
Step 7: Hang the Grill:
To hang the grill that is another process to follow and right now I will show you that process for better understanding.
Step 8: Pole And Chain:
Now you need to attach the chain through one pole for better grip. And at the start, the chain should be hung from the centre of the pole.
Step 9: Use Of QuickLink:
Then use the first quick link to attach the top end of the swivel to the sort end of the chain so that it gains its sturdiness and swing.
Step 10: Use Of Remaining QuickLinks:
Now, you will use the remaining quick links to attach the chain. And this goes in a process of linking three short ends of the chain to the bottom of the swivel.
Step 11: Use Of Carabiners:
At this stage, you are almost completed now you just need to connect the grill with the short ends of the chain and that is possible when you use the carabiners to connect them.
Now you are completed and if you want to adjust the height of the grill then you might want to install another carabiner at the centre of the pole connected with the centre chain.
Through this, you can easily adjust the height.
