Because I've used the fast forward option nearly on every clip i've muted the sound! not sure if it would be improved by adding some music audio?

Lovely result, looks wonderful and seems to be pretty sturdy for a foldaway chair!
Thanks, you are spot re the sturdiness with such a simple locating idea as well and no need for any fancy locking mechanisms
I've just finished my chair out of oak. I got the plans from Axminster and followed your video. Thank you for sharing the process, it was a great help.
Hi Tim, Oak! now that'll be so so nice. thanks for the watch, compliment and sharing your success. Cheers
Steve
Nice chair...very concise in the process.
Thank you for this! I watched this video several times last summer working up the courage to buy the plans and lumber and tackle this exact project, having never really built anything before - and I don't think I could have done it without seeing you do it first. I'm very pleased with my two chairs now.
Thanks for that Steve, I’m pleased you had a go and successfully completed your chairs. I’m sure they’ll be a great addition to your outdoors and whilst you are relaxing in those well made chairs you can contemplate your next challenge 😉 Thanks for the comment and the compliment. Cheers Steve (yep all woodworkers are called Steve 😂)
Great job ! Very nice Adirondack chair !
SD Woodworking Thanks it turned out nice and got used when we had some decent weather 😏, the plans also came with an option to make a slightly smaller in the seat chair which I also made which was just right for my wife.
love it works great. just the right size
That looks great Steve :) Great job ॐ
Brilliant well done you.
good video, many thanks from Spain.
Enrique Gracias 👍🏻
awesome chair...
Nice chair.
Cheers
Tim from wood 4 nothing
Well done sir!
So good
great result one of the best i have seen
Nice job
EXCELENTE TRABAJO, muy fino, Maestro usted es muyyyyy duro
Thanks
A small length of rope or a bungee to keep it from opening up during storage or transport and I think it'd be great
Thanks Bos...
I've just purchased the plans and seen your video; very inspiring to get a couple of these ready for the summer in the garden. do you still have your cutting list for this so I can work out the amount of timber I need. Thanks, a great job well done on this video.
Hi Daisy, I’ve just made some fixed back ones very similar to these video link here th-cam.com/video/kBacaYx2Y5k/w-d-xo.html anyway the timber requirements are 1 x 1.5m(5’) x 200mm (8”) x 25mm (1”), 6 x 2.4m (8’) x 150mm (6”) x 25mm (1”) per chair and with what is left over and the offcuts I manage to make a small wine table to accompany them. I tend to use thicker stock (1”) but think the plan calls for 3/4” so there is some slight adjustments on the cross members or the seat slats if you go with the thicker stock. Hope this helps. Cheers Steve ps depending on the moisture content and the season the back fixing can become tight or slack I just use some small thin wedges to overcome, they’re still going strong 4 yrs on
I built one myself about 3 years ago..fun little project... I see you used osmo..that stuff is so expensive. I used that no-nonsense decking oil from Screwfix think it cost me £20..for 5 litres.really good stuff I've left mine out in the rain and all kinds of wether..the wood has never warped or anything. I also used redwood..like you.I can't talk highly enough about this stuff,,
Mr Slim Guy 65 Thanks for the watch and comment, luckily the osmo was left over from a paying job so was a freebie. Yep the redwood is standing up to the weather here as well, did you re coat yours? Cheers Steve
Phenicia Wood Stuff yes Steve funny enough I gave it another coat in April it was more to put a bit of colour back into the chair than to actually treat the wood..thanks.
We call these Muskoka chairs in Canada. They make them there.
I can see the need for a folding chair...personally I prefer fixed. Job well done!
Jerry Quarles don’t disagree I’ve got fixed ones which are great! The folding ones just handy and thought might be a good version to sell 😉
Masha Allah
Thanks
Nice chair and great work. Did you use carriage bolts and stop nuts on all the joints that swivel ? I am building a different folding chair plan that uses lag bolts on some of the swivel joints which do not swivel well at all. Thanks for your advice....
I actually used some Allen (hex) stainless steel machine bolts that had a domed head with a stainless locking nut, M10 thread as I recall with a stainless washer at both bolt head and nut ends, they work a treat and still going strong some 3 yrs on 👍🏻 Thanks for the watch, comment and question. Hope it helps. Cheers Steve

Good video but was waiting on a review, how long to do, your opinion, snags you ran into etc
Sorry about that Gareth, this was one of my first videos, in terms of time as I recall it took about 3 days, once the templates are made subsequent chairs are about 1/2 the time.
No real snags, just determining the gap between the slats initially was fiddly, however once dialled in to the size with some spacers it was a breeze. like most projects you feel like you need 3 hands so a decent set of clamps/grips are a must.
They're still going strong 3 yrs living outside in the northwest of the UK, the only issue is wood movement where the back slots into the legs, in warm/dry weather can be loose, so i added some wedges and when damper (late autumn/fall) when I collapse them to store they can be tight!
Finally these are quite low so can be a bit awkward for older folk to get out of, and they're quite heavy but I used 1"/25mm Redwood pine! other species of timber might help this out.
Would i build them again yes and still do for friends and family.
The plans are easy to follow and once you've made the templates then they're there whenever you want them.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Steve
A very nice project, and co incidentally a project that I am looking at right now, so you pitched this video with perfect timing for me, the only thing about these is that they look very bulky to store, but I suppose I have got 7 barns to choose from. This would look nice in Cedar, Music always causes so much distraction, it is only any good for videos with no interesting content, a sort of padding, Chris B.
Thanks Chris, these do fold up to about 300mm and easy to store. Cheers Steve
because I've used the fast forward option nearly on every clip i've muted the sound! not sure if it would be improved by adding some music audio?
Sometimes people add music, sometimes they just play some of the sound at normal speed. Its worth experimenting to see what you like. TH-cam has a library of free music to choose from also.
It would be improved with a voice over explaining what you are doing, why you chose to do it that way and anything you would do different if you did it again
@@andrewmo49 I do agree Andrew, though not sure that I really did know what I was doing when I made this 😉. I’ll see if I can add to this video as the original footage has been lost due to the computer hard disc it was stored sadly departing this world! Thanks for the watch and the recommendation 👍🏻 Cheers Steve
The chair looks terrific; you did a good job. Are there plans for a matching footrest?
Richard Flaherty hi Thanks for compliment, I’ve not come across any footstool plans, however should be quite straight forward using the style set out in the chair plans, I just might give it a go in the near future, another one to the projects list 😉
Thank you for your reply. I look forward to more of your videos.
Amigo como hago para conseguir las plantillas en PDF
Hi Steve, Great build. How much were all the pieces of timber and MDF? Take care Steve. Cheers, Huw
Huw, but what a shocking vid 😉 As for the timber it was about £40 (prices have shot up during COVID though)and a 1/2 sheet of 12mm MDF is about £12 (the stuff I used I already had, offcuts from a previous project I guess). Cheers Steve
nice job. what kind of wood did you use?
Hi Glenn, I used Scandinavian Pine, known as ‘redwood’ in the U.K.
Hello, I'm working on one of these chairs right now and I have a question for you regarding the armrest supports. Are we supposed to drill four screw holes in both sides? Wouldn't that make it so the leg swivel would not work? I would appreciate your help on this. I have used your video through every step.
Hi Edmund, if you’re talking about the two angle brackets then you only drill the 4 screw holes in one (this attaches then to the arm) and the other has the single larger hole for the carriage bolt, it’s this that attaches to the leg and gives it the swivel. Hope this helps. Cheers Steve. Ps thanks for the view and question, if I can help further please just ask.
@@Phenrica Thanks Steve. I finished the chair today and it looks great!
Edmund Lowe Hope you get the weather to enjoy 😉
thanks a lot sir, is that plan and template available if would order for it? how much? I want to do it my self, thanks a lot
Nice job. Did you use the special Veritas hardware for the folding part?
Eric Peterson Thanks for watch and question In terms of the hardware I just bought some stainless steel bolts etc of eBay, what a cheap skate 😉
Como puedo consegir los planos de esa silla
Great video. Question: Did you round over with a 3/8 bit? Thanks
Hi Sean as I recall I used a 1/4” bit for these, however a 3/8 would do the job
Gostei dos módulos e desenhos ; tem como me mandar um aqui no Brazil. agradeço se puder. abraço
Benedito Alves da Silva Os desenhos se transformam em modelos. Tenho certeza de que haverá algo semelhante no Brasil. obrigado por assistir
Quero comprar esse projeto ! Onde eu compro ??? .
Trabalho espetacular .👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Eu também gostaria de comprar
You did a very nice job from those plans ..... but it looks too big and heavy when collapsed to be worth the trouble of folding up!
I did use 1” thick timber I’ve used 3/4 since which does make it easier to fold. With the winters in NW UK best to put away 😉 Thanks for the watch & taking the time to comment 👍🏻
what kind of finish did you use? it looks great!
Nicola Ballantine Hi, I used a wood preserver first Barrentine Golden Brown, then a couple of coats of Osmo UV protection oil, 425 Oak transparent. It still looks good still and held it’s colour well. Thanks for watching
@@Phenrica I take it pressure treated wood is not required given the sealants added?
@@MitchBegle they’re still good 3yrs on, I’ll be giving them some tlc during the autumn/fall with a rub down and a coat of Osmo. As for pressure treated it can only help tho’ the pt stuff around here is awful stuff.
So, what would you do differently if you designed such a chair?
Where Can i get a plan like yours?
Would love to see your cut list. Can you send?
อยากได้ทำอย่างไรครับ
Dear friend, I really enjoyed your work. please where can I get this project with the drawing. I'm from Brazil, I can send the Project Chain.

Quero comprar as plantas dessa cadeira . Onde compro .???
😎
Looks a great job although it did give me a headache to see all those rapid blur transitions in between clips. Some of the transitions were longer than then the actual clips LOL
Hi David, Yeh sorry about that, but in my defence it was one of my first videos with a rubbish camera and zero talent in editing 😂 unfortunately the original footage has been lost (computer death) so I can’t remaster 😏 unless I film another build of course 😉 Thanks for the watch and taking time to comment 👍🏻 Cheers Steve
Please .. I want you to send me the chair of the chair ... sizes in centimeters
Señor soy Hugo Moncada de Medellín Colombia me encanta esa silla es maravillosa lo felicito quisiera Aser una para mí le agradecería si me ayudara dónde consigo los planos mil gracias q Dios te vendiga

@@Phenrica thanks Steve
It's really quality stuff, each bit designed/drafted for perfection th-cam.com/users/postUgkx5WQ3WP9ku9goJTCwWiteQ2BfbhKsH_vl Chairs that are comfortable as heck, but would also probably last generations and all sorts of abuse, not that I'm going to put it through that. Everything about this chair is pleasant, the only thing I'd make a note of is that the low back may be an issue for some. For me, it's comfy and sits just right.
Hello
I just bought the plan on Axminster.co.uk, I would like to know which wood you have used. thank you
maraichinfr Hi, I used Redwood pine for these, it was about 22mm thick (1”) PAR planed all round. They’re still going great after a couple of years in the Northwest weather 😉
Enjoy the build they’re great chairs by the way 👍🏻
Phenrica thanks from France
Где взять такой чертеж?
Beautiful chair. I think the seat is too low to the ground for these old worn out knees. .
David Bennett Yep definitely is quite low but very comfortable once in them 😉
@@Phenrica getting out of it and on my feet is the issue. I really like Adirondack Chairs. In fact the Adirondack Mountains are just across the Mohawk River Valley to the north high up here on the ridge of the northern most boundary of the Catskill Mountains.
Bonjour, Comment se procurer un plan.merci
Bonjour, plans available here www.axminstertools.com/veritas-folding-adirondack-plus-chair-plan-476773?glCountry=GB
The Adirondack is a very American design. Is it common abroad?
Joey Suggs Hi Joey I guess the design came from the Adirondack region in New York State USA. The design is quite worldwide I believe, they’re very comfortable as a outside/garden lounge chair plus quite a straight forward woodworking project. Normally they’re of a fixed build type which makes them awkward to store etc in the winter months so the folding ones make this easier imho.
Hope this helps
Thank you for the reply. I hadnt known they spread so far. Always thought they were a New England thing. Nothing better in summer in the shade with a G&T or mint julep.
How about exercise

Nice chair... would be great not using de-focus when transitioning b/n frames. So irritates the eyesight.
Руслан Плутонов I so agree it was one of my first videos sorry, I don’t use that transition at all now and due to make some more chairs so might re shoot 😉
В сложенном виде обдирается фронтальная сторона подлокотников. :-(
seriously is there anything nicer in the workshop than the smell of cedar?
????/
he didn't use cedar. To me it looks like pine
Un peu fatiguant, les flous de transition... Sinon, très bien fait !
Mon montage vidéo n'est pas aussi bon que ma menuiserie je pense! merci pour le bien fait
Bravo quand même pour la qualité de votre travail. Le flou tend à déconcentrer. Il ne faut l'utiliser que pour les grandes transitions. Le mieux devient sinon l'ennemi du bien.
Autre question. Où peut-on se procurer ces plans ? Merci.
Le nouvel effet de transition que je viens de regarder est bien meilleur. Merci pour cette correction rapide.

Sunny Brae Woodcraft Here. Just a question Under " Assembly Instructions" it states ( all templates and these instructions assume your stock has been milled to 3/4 inch. yet you used 1 inch? If you used the templates as I have 1" will not work. Can you explain please tks
