Bravo Chris. When I see the thickness of the material you're working with, I know it's quality
Really enjoyed making this, it is an excellent project, very sound design and nice and comfortable in use. I reduced the thickness of the pieces from 1.5 inches to 1.25 inches as that suited the lumber I had, and with a couple of very minor adjustments it worked fine.
Very attractive and functional project. Chris does a fantastic job communicating the details that make it all come together. 👍
These look so sturdy and beautiful
I like the design to enable folding for storage.
Sir , Beautiful Chair
That's such a beautiful build and such a great idea!
Thanks for showing how and sharing that, well done
Brilliant tutorial thank you.
nice project!
I have seldom seen such a clean workshop, is the work done in it or is it just a backdrop in the studio?
i am really going to make it ...
Interesante. Solo falta contar con las herramientas necesarias para este tipo de trabajo.
Hi again. I am struggling with the design of the rotating hinges used at the pivot points. My old chair just had big screws there and it didn’t last long. So I’m thinking of designing my own using brass bolts, PVC and Delrin. Do you have any ideas that might help me? I want it robust, easy to pivot but otherwise tight. I want it to look good too.
Thanks,
Paul
Looks awesome! Any chance cnc router files available for vcarve pro?
Needs a planer, router with table, band saw, table saw with dado blade, drill press, table sander, palm router, etc.
Oh to dream.
And if you bought all the equipment and built only 2 chairs a chair cost § 2500, or you make yourself more independent as a carpenter and produce from now on these chairs.
Not really, you could make it with far fewer tools than that.
Hi. What kind of wood did you use? If I were to buy planks, what dimensions would I need? Like 4 pieces 1 x 8 x 6’ and 2 pieces 2 x 8 x 6’. That kind of thing.
I bought some mesquite for a chair but then figured I didn’t want an $800 chair. Next was Western Red Cedar, but it’s also expensive. Then I found a deal on eBay for old growth redwood. But not sure if I have enough. This is why I ask the question. Maybe the answer is in the plans.
I had some of these chairs in Connecticut but the pivot points rotted away. I’ve designed something elaborate but not sure I’ll implement them.
Good job and thanks,
Paul
The plans have a sample cut list using dimensional lumber, but also a detailed cut list that you can use to calculate your own.
For example I couldn't find any 10 ft long cedar, so I had to order extra 8 footers.
Also, if I had to do it again, I would ignore the order of operations in this video - try to group similar processes, like doing all of the rip cutting first, then cross cutting, etc.
Would Cedar be too soft for this chair? Thanks in advance......
Beautiful build, but mahogany? Jeez, it would cost me a grand to build a single chair. Also, wouldn't they end up being quite heavy? I think I'll stick with cedar.
I just did. It was around $200 for the mahogany.
I made it in oak for about £250 for 2 chairs, using rough sawn. The main cost was actually the stainless steel hardware which is essential for outdoors and not cheap.
What timber did you use ?
Has anyone figured out how much lumber(stock) is needed for 1 chair? or perhaps Woodworkers Journal could answer this question please? It doesn't say in the plans or material list. One would have to calculate everything, it would be much easier if we could get a rough estimate of how much total stock is needed.
There is a very detailed cutting list in the woodworkers journal article, with plans which you can copy and enlarge, which I got online for about £7.00. From the cutting list you can work out how much lumber, but as a rough guide I need about 4 or 5 boards that were 2inch thick and 10 ft long to make 2 chairs, using a few extra bits that I had lying around the workshop.

Toma foto a piezas directo al celular o movil saca copia y segun el tamaño lo puedes agrandar el dibujo de la copia lo recortas a la mitad después le das las medidas y wala....
