Do you know of these ole timey porch benches?

When I was a little girl there was a special home I use to visit that I loved. It had a wonderful front porch with homemade benches that you could sit and bounce on. It was basically a plank that went thru cut-outs on the porch columns(?) that allowed the plank to bounce. I may have the construction part wrong. They were great fun. Does anyone remember these, what they were called and how they were made? Thanks, Lisbeth

Someone on the farming board identified it as a joggling board or joggling bench. That is exactly what I remember. Just wanted to share if anyone was interested. Thanks, Lisbeth
