Woody1 Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hey all, As some of you know from my previous posts I'm still pretty new to woodworking (about 6 months) and have a lot to learn but here's my first major build. It's made entirely out of pallet wood and is the first of several outdoor pieces I plan on making. Having trouble posting the pic...stand by.

ColinF Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Looks good! How does she sit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1 Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 It's really comfortable, but leans back a bit too much. That was probably the hardest part was figuring what angle the back would sit at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinF Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Chairs are tough. I've made a couple from plans but I've never tried designing my own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 The chair looks great. If you make more, you'll learn from your mistakes. I made three Adirondack chairs before I had one that met my comfort. I gave the first two away and made the forth the same as the third. But building one that is too comfortable sure takes away from your shop time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
