Let me know how they turn out!

Glad you liked it

You can use any of those if you’re going to have in covered area. I made a couple pine Adirondacks probably 15 yrs ago that weather has almost destroyed. Certain woods do well in the weather. White oak, cedar, cypress, teak, mahogany are the ones that come to mind. You could use composite lumber from big box store. It would certainly last.

Good question. Use a friend’s? Local business?

That is awesome!😎

Shop class might like to make the folding version as well that there are free plans too. Easier to store or transport

I’ll have to do some calculations. You could rip 2x4s for the seat slats. Have to resaw them to make the back slats.

If you are going to plane down “2 by” material, arms will need about 2x8 x 6’ and legs (long and front) will take about 2x6 x 10’ of material. If you wanted to do rest with planed down 2x4 material, you can. I’d think of cost and your time too. Might be worth it to buy material already planed to thickness. But sometimes repurposed, free or discounted material, can’t be passed up. Good luck!

@@tswwoodworking thank you very much

You’re welcome!

They go into box for back seat. You can see them at 12:03. Wish I knew how or if able to add a photo to comment reply. Picture speaks volumes!

All pieces not included in templates are listed in video description In regards to your question about front cross stretcher. It is 20” long which is same as seat slats. Back stretcher is shorter at 18.5” which may vary depending on your stock thickness. Copied from description: List of other pieces (2) Front legs. 20 x 5 1/2" (2) Back Vertical supports 25 1/4 x 3" (1) Front cross stretcher 20 x 4" (1) Back cross stretcher 18 1/2 x 4" (14) Seat slats 20 x 1 1/2" (7) Back Slats 32" long (2 1/2 tapered to 2") Good luck

You can make it. Even if it doesn’t look perfect, you can feel good that you made it. Change the way things are joined to suit what tools you have and your skills. I’ve thrown out things and started over before!

Thank you 🙏 Truly appreciate the compliment.

Yes, depending on what I have available, I often modify even my own plans as I go along.

No, sorry. It was a special order and not something I will probably not make multiples of.

Look forward to getting there someday!

Glad it was useful. Changing things is good. Always room for improvement. I’d change a couple things with my workbench if i ever made another one.

That’s great. Good luck

I’ll have to look into that. However, a rocking Windsor Chair is one that’s on my life list

Nope, seat slats are 20” and front stretcher is 20”. Temporary spacers are 18.5”. You can see this at 11:52 of video.

It is same length as seat slats. It is attached between front legs and long back legs rest on top of it.

That’s awesome! Made my day.

⁠@@tswwoodworking Finally finished the 6 chairs. They were a lot of work but I’m happy with the results. Thanks again.

Yes, that’s correct. That’s what I’d start with. Should be clear when you print out templates and lay it out. Make sure printer size is 100%. Many of them auto adjust.

Obrigado!

Sorry no, I don't remember. I didn't make plans for it. And just did rough sketch before putting it together. I knelt down and just measured where I thought it'd be comfortable. I do remember that the top was at about 10 degrees.

Glad you like it. If you make the templates, you can always make two :) Personally, I like the folding one too since I can store it away. ua-cam.com/video/HKwjb_Ex8Kc/v-deo.html

Thank you! But, I mainly used the plywood to make my prototype. I like the weight of the cedar, easy to move around. Main thing is to keep busy doing what you enjoy doing. Thanks again

Your welcome!

You could use 1x6s for everything except the arms, which are 6.5” wide….or you could adjust the template to make arms a little narrower. Depends on what material you have to work with. I always loved McGyver. Good luck 👍

Yes the arms are 71.12 x 13.97 cm (which is 28 x 5.5 inches)

I’ll have to check. I just started from front seat slat, working towards the back and used drill bit as spacer for seat slats to get a nice consistent look.

@@tswwoodworking Thank you

I checked and I used a 3/16” drill bit as spacer between seat slats. This leaves about 3/8” between last seat slat and back rest vertical pieces. Hope that helps

@@tswwoodworking Thank you so much, you do such a great job building!

Thank you! I appreciate that

That angle is 30 degrees with the 25 1/4” being the long edge. Hope that helps

The link for the pdf templates is in the video description. You can adjust the width to suit your needs. Good luck!

No, just the templates that you can access through link in the video description. If you make them and follow video, you’ll do great.

The upper and lower stretchers where back slats attach are concaved. It’ll give you a curved back. When you print out templates, you’ll see. I probably made a comment about it in the video too. Good luck!

Sorry for the trouble. I reprinted all the pages out. They are 1x1” squares. Only thing I can think of is when you overlap the pages to line up the 1” squares that is where the issue is. Since half the square is on one page and half is on the next page, they overlap a bit. Since I printed it out, I’ll draw in some alignment triangles that overlap the pages. Then, upload the file again.

I added some alignment triangles on the pdf to help when taping the pages together and reloaded pdf with a new link. My printer did give me the right lengths when I printed it out. Hope that helps. Sorry you were having trouble. I thought the 1" squares would work for people to align the pages. I should have added the triangles before. Good luck.

You’re welcome

Is your printer set to 100%? They should be 1” squares. Some printers auto adjust. Let me know if that was it.

You're welcome

Carriage (stove) bolts. Except for one set of lag screws. I think I listed hardware on first page of pdf. Good luck with project!

No problem. Good luck.

There are free templates for a folding Adirondack Chair on that video as well that I like since you can store it away.

Yes, pivot holes are 12.5” up on vertical pieces. If you look at 12:00 on video. Just center them on vertical pieces. Hope that helps! Good luck!

Glad it was helpful. Working on Morris Chair full build video right now. Probably out in couple weeks.

Glad it was helpful. Yes, I should have made it clearer that templates were for curved parts and square parts were listed in description. And, I’m always amazed at how videos connect with people across the globe! Thanks

I planed it down to 3/4” thick

I used 1/4” hardboard. You could use 1/2” mdf or plywood. I usually look through my rack and see what I have on hand. Hope that helps.

The link for the curved templates is listed in the video description, and all the “square” parts are listed there as well. Good luck with your build.

I should probably give a plug for the Folding Adirondack Chair video as well. I kind of like it better since able to store away for winter. Folding Adirondack Chair with Free pdf Plans ua-cam.com/video/HKwjb_Ex8Kc/v-deo.html

(2) Front legs. 20 x 5 1/2" (2) Back Vertical supports 25 1/4 x 3" All the “square” parts are listed in the video description too. Let me know if that helps.

Glad you liked them. We loved Cape Breton and Digby.

De nada, tengo un video para silla plegable de Adirondack tambien. Hopefully my Spanish was okay. :)
