TSW (Two Saw Workshop) is a labor of love
I enjoy making furniture and anything from wood, especially things or joints I've never used before. Over the past 20 years, I have learned from magazines, books, videos and...yes, from Norm
My thought on wood is like the adage "The piece is hidden inside. You just have to find it."
There is always something new to learn and try. This channel is my way of recording that journey.
Even if you are not going to build the project yourself, you will gain knowledge from each video that you can use in your own creations. The value is in the different methods, tips and tricks you’ll pick up along the way that will enhance your woodworking experience
I try to make 1-2 projects per month for the channel. Unfortunately, my real job gets in the way which makes it tough to make videos more frequently with original content, video editing, etc.
I am truly grateful for your support!

I wanted to buy one for my home but they aren't sold anywhere (I live in Australia). That's why I'm watching this video even though I haven't done woodwork since I was at school about 20 years go. The one you made looks great. I wish I could make one too.
You can make it. Even if it doesn’t look perfect, you can feel good that you made it. Change the way things are joined to suit what tools you have and your skills. I’ve thrown out things and started over before!
Nicely done. I've been to the Gamble House 2-3 times and made our master bed after the one there, minus the Tsuba cutout in headboard. You do good work. Please keep posting.
Thank you 🙏 Truly appreciate the compliment.
Thanks for the plans. Can we keep back vertical support, front / back cross stretchers all 3.5" wide. I have SPF wood 3/4" x 3.5". Thanks
Yes, depending on what I have available, I often modify even my own plans as I go along.
do u have a cut list
No, sorry. It was a special order and not something I will probably not make multiples of.
Cheers from Argentina!!!
Look forward to getting there someday!
Made 2 for our daughter she loves them, thanks for making the plans available. One modification I made was the last seat slat that goes against the back slats, I made a curved section that matched the curve of the lower back back slats filling in the gap.
Glad it was useful. Changing things is good. Always room for improvement. I’d change a couple things with my workbench if i ever made another one.
Great video! I am going to try making one this weekend!
That’s great. Good luck
Hello. what about the rocking adirondack?
I’ll have to look into that. However, a rocking Windsor Chair is one that’s on my life list
the seat slats are 20" to make them fit they would have to be 21-1/2"
Nope, seat slats are 20” and front stretcher is 20”. Temporary spacers are 18.5”. You can see this at 11:52 of video.
why is front stretcher 20"
It is same length as seat slats. It is attached between front legs and long back legs rest on top of it.
How can the front stretcher be 20" and the seat slats the same length. in order to make them fit the seat slats will have to be 21 1/2"
It is same length as seat slats. It is attached between front legs and long back legs rest on top of it.
Just finished the first one. I converted the wood to 5/4 which took a little rework but the results were fine. Going to use this one as my templates to make a set of 6 chairs. Thank you very much for the free templates.
That’s awesome! Made my day.
Great video and thank you for the plans. I can wait to start my chairs.Did the 5 pieces of 1"x6"x12' only make 1 chair?
Yes, that’s correct. That’s what I’d start with. Should be clear when you print out templates and lay it out. Make sure printer size is 100%. Many of them auto adjust.
Excellent tutorial. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
new subscriber from Curitiba, Brazil
Obrigado!
Very nice. Do you have the board sizes you used?
Sorry no, I don't remember. I didn't make plans for it. And just did rough sketch before putting it together. I knelt down and just measured where I thought it'd be comfortable. I do remember that the top was at about 10 degrees.
New subscriber from South Africa. This is going to be my first project. This is the most wonderful and thorough video I have seen yet. Love that you explain everything so clearly. Thank you so much.
Glad you like it. If you make the templates, you can always make two :) Personally, I like the folding one too since I can store it away. czcams.com/video/HKwjb_Ex8Kc/video.html
If you framed it with 3/4 marine grade plywood and decked it (seat, back and arms) with cedar, it would last decades. The decking would be replaceable and the frame everlasting. I think the plywood idea is genius. No splitting or cracking around the bolts... Beautiful chair.
Thank you! But, I mainly used the plywood to make my prototype. I like the weight of the cedar, easy to move around. Main thing is to keep busy doing what you enjoy doing. Thanks again
Круто. Спасибо
Your welcome!
Did you use all 1x6 boards?
You could use 1x6s for everything except the arms, which are 6.5” wide….or you could adjust the template to make arms a little narrower. Depends on what material you have to work with. I always loved McGyver. Good luck 👍
Hello, can you tell me what size the armrest should be in centimeters?
Yes the arms are 71.12 x 13.97 cm (which is 28 x 5.5 inches)
Thank you for sharing the plans, what is the gap between the seat slats and the back rest, Thank you
I’ll have to check. I just started from front seat slat, working towards the back and used drill bit as spacer for seat slats to get a nice consistent look.
@@tswwoodworking Thank you
I checked and I used a 3/16” drill bit as spacer between seat slats. This leaves about 3/8” between last seat slat and back rest vertical pieces. Hope that helps
@@tswwoodworking Thank you so much, you do such a great job building!
What angle did you use at the top of the back vertical supports? Is the 25 1/4" dimension the long or short dimension?
That angle is 30 degrees with the 25 1/4” being the long edge. Hope that helps
This is the chair I made back in 2011. The template s for this particular chair was some how destroyed. I was hoping that you can send off for the free PDF sheets and I can transfer the measurements on to a 1/4 inch thick of wooden material. All the measurements is accurate that you come across as you read. If some is fat..or just got a big fat ass,.. I just need to make the seat a little wider.
The link for the pdf templates is in the video description. You can adjust the width to suit your needs. Good luck!
do you also had a blue print drawing for ASSY
No, just the templates that you can access through link in the video description. If you make them and follow video, you’ll do great.
Thank you for the free plans!! Would it be possible to make the back concave (curve contour)?
The upper and lower stretchers where back slats attach are concaved. It’ll give you a curved back. When you print out templates, you’ll see. I probably made a comment about it in the video too. Good luck!
I checked my printer everything looks good. Some dimensions are OK some are off.
Sorry for the trouble. I reprinted all the pages out. They are 1x1” squares. Only thing I can think of is when you overlap the pages to line up the 1” squares that is where the issue is. Since half the square is on one page and half is on the next page, they overlap a bit. Since I printed it out, I’ll draw in some alignment triangles that overlap the pages. Then, upload the file again.
I added some alignment triangles on the pdf to help when taping the pages together and reloaded pdf with a new link. My printer did give me the right lengths when I printed it out. Hope that helps. Sorry you were having trouble. I thought the 1" squares would work for people to align the pages. I should have added the triangles before. Good luck.
Thank yoy
You’re welcome
Hello good job I really love this chair but I’m having issues with measurements pice on page 3,4,5 Says 21 3/4 when I put template together and I measured it’s only 21 1/4 and also the armrest on page 1,2,3 the measurement says 28 1/16 and when I measured the template it’s only 27 1/8 and page 10,11,12 supposed to be 21 inches and 22 inches top one is 20 1/2 and bottom one is 21 1/2 can you check measurements please
Is your printer set to 100%? They should be 1” squares. Some printers auto adjust. Let me know if that was it.
Thank you
You're welcome
What do you use for hardware to connect the folding piece
Carriage (stove) bolts. Except for one set of lag screws. I think I listed hardware on first page of pdf. Good luck with project!
Thank you for the template Very kind of you to not charge for it I’m from Miami, FL
No problem. Good luck.
There are free templates for a folding Adirondack Chair on that video as well that I like since you can store it away.
G’day, all the way from Australia! Very new to woodworking. Is there supposed to be holes on the back box verticals to attach the armrest ? Help needed as it is doing my head in 😂
Yes, pivot holes are 12.5” up on vertical pieces. If you look at 12:00 on video. Just center them on vertical pieces. Hope that helps! Good luck!
I like these chairs and the accompanying ottoman and table a lot! I managed to find a well made copy for sale used but excellent condition for $50 but now I want to make another, and maybe a footstool too. This video has helped me on several of the details - so Thanks!
Glad it was helpful. Working on Morris Chair full build video right now. Probably out in couple weeks.
Great video, but it's especially awesome that you shared the plans. I have now solved all the missing parts by reading all the comments. Regards from Turkey and thank you for sharing ...
Glad it was helpful. Yes, I should have made it clearer that templates were for curved parts and square parts were listed in description. And, I’m always amazed at how videos connect with people across the globe! Thanks
Hi, what is the thickness of the boards ?
I planed it down to 3/4” thick
What is the material for the template ?
I used 1/4” hardboard. You could use 1/2” mdf or plywood. I usually look through my rack and see what I have on hand. Hope that helps.
Enjoyed the video. I don't see a link to download the pdf plans
The link for the curved templates is listed in the video description, and all the “square” parts are listed there as well. Good luck with your build.
I should probably give a plug for the Folding Adirondack Chair video as well. I kind of like it better since able to store away for winter. Folding Adirondack Chair with Free pdf Plans czcams.com/video/HKwjb_Ex8Kc/video.html
How long are the front legs and the vertical back support?
(2) Front legs. 20 x 5 1/2" (2) Back Vertical supports 25 1/4 x 3" All the “square” parts are listed in the video description too. Let me know if that helps.
thanks for the plans i am from Nova Scotia Canada
Glad you liked them. We loved Cape Breton and Digby.
Gracias! 🙌
De nada, tengo un video para silla plegable de Adirondack tambien. Hopefully my Spanish was okay. :)
Thank you for the templates!! Made it relatively easy to make. Look forward to your future builds.
Awesome! Thank you!
Love the arms. Looks like it'll last a lifetime.
Thank you 🙏
That's beautiful!!
Thank you! Cheers!
My mom used to have one just like that. Brings back memories.
I have a piece I build with my dad. When I see it and it takes me back.
I happy that I could get the templates but I had a problem downloading them onto my computer.
drive.google.com/file/d/1C8A1L3wLysGF9qkUGQIfO9NlyfET1aY2/view?usp=sharing It’s just on google docs link. It says anyone with link should have access. Hope it works for you.
what stain and sealant would you recommend if these are left out in the elements all the time? Also what would you change to make the chair 2-4" taller? just the front legs longer and change the angle of the back, or would that whole piece need to be longer as well? Thanks for taking the time to make the video!
Depends on type of wood used. I made these out of white oak which exterior doors are sometimes made from. Could use whatever stain you like, but I then spray with Waterlox (modified Tung oil). If you make chairs out of cedar or something that doesn’t take stain well, I just coat with the Waterlox and let wood change to eventual color which can be nice. I’m not a fan of polyurethane. Seems to flake over time. Hope that helps. Oh, and I have made a raised one, but was just modified design but don’t have plans for it. Good luck!
would you mind sharing the length of the main leg and what the angle is where it sits on the ground? also how far is the bottom of the main support from the bottom end of the front leg? thanks so much.
Main leg is 38.5” and the angle is 72 degrees. That front leg meet the long leg 7.25” from floor in its front. If you print it the templates from link in video description, I think that may help to visualize. Hope that helps.
Very nice 👍
I appreciate that, thanks. I’m filming a complete build right now.
Beautiful chair. What size spacers did you use for the seat slats?
Thank you! I spaced them about 3/16”. If I’m lazy, sometimes I just use two drill bits as the spacers to get the spacing the way I want.
