Self tapping screws aren't protected from rust. Your screws will rust immediately. You are very dangerous with your table saw I was gritting the entire time.
Just did two swivel rockers but I used PT 1x2's and applied my finish before assembly. Result was very nice. Toughest part was sorting thru the 1x2's at the store to get some nice pieces!
I am going to do a very similar job to my chaise lounge using 1x4 pt and Tek screws with a hex head. I could not quite see what what head you had but it looked like they sunk in flush. What screw did you use and where did you get it? I use pickets all the time as I make and sell birdhouses at our local county farmers market but I chose the pt because an 8' board is about the same price as a cedar 6' picket. Are we the last two old school guys that use a folding rule?
I have similar chairs with ripped fabric. I'm debating between your method and just replacing the fabric (another vid. shows how). But I'm wondering how yours have held up these last two years?
Problem is, i started putying a few Boards on last nite, now there wett got Rained on, so it will be the Same when u get ready to sit in, u will have to wait for it to Dry!!
I agree using PT, my question on that cedar, its 3/8ths does it hold the weight? but great Idea, I have swivel rockers and I did not want to change the material, which cost a lot, and you need to sewing machine, and it will dry out again. love this idea

I love how explain each step. I'm just learning and you don't assume we already know the basics. Easy to understand! Thank you for sharing!
They do sell or you can make push sticks. Glad to see you still have all your fingers!
Looks good..Im going to try it on my project. My chairs require different size slats throughout the chair..but Its worth a try..thanks😊

The wood piece keeps splitting at the edges when I screw in the screws

How many fence boards did you use? I have to sling back chaises that I want to redo.
Great idea using cedar fence pickets. I’d change up the process, however.
Looks very nice. Always good to repurpose.
Excellent job!!! I have 6 frames that I'm glad I didn't throw away. Thank you for sharing:)
Great idea. I'm going to try this
It looks beautiful thanks
Awesome! Thanks 🙏🏽

I will try it . Better than sewing it. Nice job!
Omg I love this! I just got a free glider that has the seat ripped up and wanted to do something difficult
