    I love it! Great work. I also love one of the shots that showed that your tapered legs weren’t all exactly perfect. Nothing any woodworker worth their salt has made in big projects (by hand) has ever been completely perfect. It proves it was made by hand, with love. You’d never be able to tell by looking at the final product tho, which is always the goal lol

    Hi! I built two of these. Two suggestions:
    1- As my bandsaw can't handle the posts, I nailed a piece of wood strip (slits remained from 2X4 ) on cut end of 4x4 letting strip exceed 1 5/8" from side of post. Strip will keep one end of the post away from table saw guide to give the exact angle you want. Using two small nails will facilitate removal and replacing of the strip to make the other cuts. Obviously, be sure that the nails are away from where you want to cut.
    2- You can add armrests using 2x4 (I used 1 1/4 x 5) scrolled on bandsaw for support and fence planks for top.

    Built these- Very well designed and sturdy. A couple of suggestions; in Step 2 the pocket holes for attaching the slats worked better for me at 3.5" and 7" in from the sides, Also glued and brad nailed the angled supports on back, then flipped it over to drill 2 screws in from the front. Overall they came out great even with a few minor mistakes I made during the process, and I imagine they will last a long time. It would be neat to do an addendum where you add wheels and a handle to make them easier to move?

    Apologies if this is a silly question as I’m new to woodwork, but wood here in the UK is really expensive right now so i bought an old solid oak table off eBay for about $1 (!) to use for projects. Would this sort of wood suitable for an outdoor project with the right preperation and care (and if so, what would that be?) or does it have to be a special kind of timber for outside use? Like i say, new to all this and trying to find affordable ways to enjoy the hobby!

      Going to Carpenter school in the army, I always had to wear my hair up anyways. This wasn't something that was brought up ever. I guess force of habit keeps my hair up whenever I work on anything! Wood, cars, appliances and even when I cook. I had major anxiety when I saw this too part too. 😳

      I used some free wood that I got that was slightly thinner than 2x4, if I would have moved it after attaching the backrest it would have been too heavy for one person.

      I glued 3 2x4s together to make the legs, simple and works so far. Didn't mess around with trying to make a taper on them, it's not needed. You will need a jigsaw to cutout the stops for the seat adjustability.

  • @jackstanford550
    @jackstanford550 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    After discovering and agonizing over the wrong dimensions for this great project, I spent hours studying and revising them to make it better for me. I am posting some of the modifications and hope I don’t add to the confusion. One problem with the original seems to be that the author assumed that the 2X4s are actually 2”X4” and 4X4s are 4”X4”. Example, he shows the overall length of the lounge to be 78” with the stretchers 70”. This doesn’t work because the 4X4 legs aren’t ...well...4”X4”. That throws off measurements for the entire project. Another thing (then I’ll stop) is that if you build the base 24X78...the seat and back frame ( 24X29 3/4) cannot have a 1/2” reveal over the base (24X78). I stop! Cheers.
    .
    1. 2 -2 x 3 3/4 base frame stretchers--71”
    2. 4 legs - made our legs 16”
    3. 2 - 2 x 3 3/4 cross pcs for base frame middle-CTF*
    4. 2 - 2 x 3 3/4 cross pcs for base frame ends--16”
    5. 2 - 2 x 3 3/8 seat frame stretchers--48”
    6. 2 - 2 x 3 3/8 for seat & back frame cross pcs.--24”
    7. 2 - 2 x 3 3/8 for seat & back frame cross pcs.-CTF, about 17”
    8. 2 - 2 x 3 3/8 for back frame side pcs.--29 3/4”
    9. 4 - 2 x 3 3/8 for back frame slats--CTF
    10. 2 - 2 x 3 3/4 for templates--CTF, should be 16”
    11. 2 -2 x 3 3/4 for back attached to base (see template photo)-CTF
    12. 4 - 2 x 3 3/4 for support arms- 20” then SEE PLANS
    13. 2 - 1 1=2 for supports--SEE PLAN
    14. 1 - 1 1=2 for support---SEE PLAN
    15. 4 - 2 x 3 3/8 slats for base--CTF, should be about 41” or 42”
