Barstool - Curved Back Chairs
|
|
The final installment of our outdoor kitchen project is this set of four tall, curved-back chairs. They share several details from the other kitchen pieces, including solid cedar construction and a two-tone finish. However, because they are chairs, they offer the unique challenge of building a piece of furniture that is equal parts attractive, comfortable, and durable.

Barstool chair for your breakfast bar
|
|
Today's kitchen is more than just a room for cooking. These days it's more of a geographical region, less defined by walls than by what it contains--its appliances, cabinets and, of course, the kitchen counter. In a way, the counter really reflects the nature of kitchen activity. From chopping to mixing to carving the roast, it's not the kind of work you do sitting down--at least, not in an ordinary chair. What you need is a chair that matches the stature of your counter--you need a kitchen stool.

Beach Chair
|
|
The project in question was a pair of compact wooden beach chairs. I?ve been toying around with the idea of making wooden beach chairs for some time now. About three years ago I first bumped into a pair of fellow campers who had some similar chairs. I was intrigued at how these chairs would come apart and nest into themselves for transport. I tried them out and they were just fine for sitting at the beach

A 16th Century German Folding Chairby Ld. Chas. Oakley Well, the array of seating possibilities continues. This project is very similar in many ways to the 16th Century Fauldstool that I have presented before but, in actuality, much simpler to build.

Build a Child's Rocker
|
|
Kids are always in motion. It?s not easy to get them even to sit down in a chair. But this rocker lets them work off energy while staying in one place. And rocking can be just as soothing for children as it tends to be for adults. Kids love it. Plans for a sturdy plywood chair that can be disassembled and stored flat.
