Update on the swings!

The whole swingset ((from behind))
The one on the end
The one in the middle ((mine))
((Last one omitted for redundancy.))
The horshoe-shaped bit rotates inside the bit attached to the top bar, and the rest of the chain is pretty loosely connected to that, as you can see. I took a short video of this in motion; I can't upload it anywhere, but feel free to IM, email, or otherwise bug me for it. :)
So I tried it a couple more times today, and it behaved in the following manner(s):
1. The one to my right moved steadily opposite to mine, and the one to my left I couldn't really be sure of a pattern in. It might have been just a half-phase off. Later that same day,
2. The one on the right went kind of nuts, getting a little too high for itself and "bouncing" ((please know what I'm talking about...)). The other never really got very active, and in fact stopped altogether at one point. When I noticed this and mentioned it to some person I was showing it all to, it started back up again ((but still stayed fairly low)).
Again with the your thoughts!
