Humm, another weekend project to check off! Great build idea 👷🏽♂️
My dad built a chair much like this 50 years ago. I still have two in the back yard. Thank you for bringing back memories for me. I did not find the plans on your etsy page. Thank you again. Don't tell dad but your chairs are a little nicer😊
The plans aren't out quite yet unfortunately. I really appreciate the support and I'm glad I could help with a good memory.
That’s a really nice diy patio chair! Awesome job bro!
Thanks a bunch!
I use my extreme angle jig a lot! I love it! Another great video! Thanks Andy!
I'm glad you liked it and that the jig has helped you a lot. I appreciate the support.
Good job man,God bless you.
Thank you! Thanks for watching.
Double! Very nice, I'm planning on making a couple of these out of cedar for my backyard patio. Great content as usual.
Cedar is a GREAT idea. I appreciate the support, you'll have to let me know how the build turns out.
I love it they look daily simple and should sell well. I am going to attempt one at some point this summer.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. You'll have to let me know how it turns out.
I just finished this build this weekend. Great design and measurements. The backrest will fit perfectly snug between the assembled seat/leg assembly but needs a little persuasion. I added a cup holder to mine. I also had to add shims between the backrest and armrests because when I tightened the reinforcing screws the legs racked a bit. You could pre-paint the pieces before assembly for easier painting but keep in mind you will need to touch up. The only modification I would make would be to widen the seat/backrest maybe an inch more, mainly because my girlfriend has a big arse. Also note if your plan is to make these the centerpiece of your deck/patio, keep in mind it's construction grade lumber you are looking at here; imperfections are evident and the norm when spending about $23 in materials. Thanks so much for posting the video and get that double one going!
I really appreciate all of your input. I like the shim idea to prevent racking.
I think I might just make one of these at work next week. The double sounds like a good idea.
You'll have to let me know how it turns out. I appreciate your support
Great Chair love it
Thank you.
Double. I’ll probably give these a go. Nice work!
You'll have to let me know how it goes. I really appreciate the support.
Excellent. Get that double one going!
Working on it right now actually. I appreciate the support.
Great video. Thanks
Thank you for the support.
22:08 double! Definitely like both the single and the double! Also would like equally a table or a cooler between the seats on the double! Thanks for sharing this great build Andy! Have a great weekend! Would love to see some additional craft planter designs. Maybe a triangular one!
I love the ideas! As always I appreciate your support.
Thanks!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
The last thing you want is a perfectly level seat. It should be angled slightly at the rear for water run off.
ok
Thank you brother....
Thank you for watching.
Double I will be making these. I'm really looking forward to the double build.
I appreciate the support. I'll hopefully make it a little bit lighter for the double build.
Thanks Great Job
Thanks for watching!
Double. Great video. I came back for instructions and to buy the plans.
You did already give me a tip for the video. If you want to email me I can send you over the plans.
Double....looking forward to seeing the double chair build. I recently built two of Ana White's outdoor chairs. I tried pocket holes and it was a nightmare. On the second one I did what you did here with the countersinking.
I have thought about doing some modern Adirondack chairs like those too.
Pocket holes can definitely get weird sometimes.
I appreciate your support.
Nice build. I might give that a shot. Seems a bit heavy. But my brain is already reducing the weight. Also thinking of making it foldable. Just for storage. Again good build.
The slats you could go with 1x4 material to make it lighter. I like the folding idea.
double keep up the good work
Thank you! I appreciate your support!
Interesting and informative video, thank you. I'm thinking, I'm going to check cushion sizes before cutting the 17" slats. Thanks again 😁
A 20x20 cushion should fit great! I'll be putting some light grey ones on that dark painted chair.
Double....pretty cool build....
Thank you. I appreciate the support.
It never even crossed my mind to make a double version. I made a couple sets of these (using pocket screws) last summer for my house and I gave away a set to a friend. They turned out to be more comfortable than the store bought chairs we had purchased when we moved into this house. I originally sized them up a little to fit some cushions that I loved but I found I like the chairs without the cushions so much better. Keep up the great videos.
I agree they are very comfortable. I am going to try and make the double with some lighter materials, so the thing doesn't weight 100lbs. I appreciate the support.
@@cedarriverwoodworking. Glad to hear it’s gonna be less heavy. Thks for the consideration : I’m gonna be 70 soon and I’m allergic to heavy it seems.
How did the pocket holes screws work out?
@@jessicachambers3976 the pocket screws worked out great. I have had the chairs in use for a year and haven’t had any issues.
It seems to me you could build one that has a side table attached and then you can just slide a second chair against the side table piece and now it is the same as if it had been built as a double, but not as heavy as a double.
Nice chair
Thank you.
Great video, let's see that double.
Working on it. I and recording a video for a sofa style right now. double will be shortly after.
Thanks for the video, I’m in need of a different chair to build think I will build yours. Although with your video plans aren’t needed but will wait to buy them when they are available. Liked and subscribed.
I try to make the videos so that beginners can follow them without plans, but I know some people still like to have them. I appreciate the support.

@@jjamontan I appreciate the support.
Double, nice chair
Thank you. I appreciate the support.
Nice job. I've been looking for a design & this is an ideal build for my patio set. I will have to invest in a mitre saw though & if you can recommend any brands I'll be happy to check them out.
So the Hercules saw I have is good. Eventually you'll want to upgrade blades. Or this dewalt one on Amazon is very similar at a similar price. amzn.to/3ywDHfb
Double.
Nice build. So, we're talking about a double chair but have you thought about a side table? That might be nice, too.
I love the suggestion. I will see what I can come up it. I appreciate the support.
I like the chair because of it's simplicity. We make a chair that's a bit more complicated, but I think we will make a couple to see how they sell. I'm also gonna see about making the back leg with a 2x4. I'm not to keen on the looks of the 2x6.
GREAT chair though, and we'll be watching for the double.
A 2x4 should work. You may need to adjust it's placement for support purposes, but I think it should work well.
I appreciate the support.
Double- great video, are you going to be making a whole set with table or something
Yes I'm working on an end table right now.
I would like to see them Made into outside bar stools
I like that idea. I will see what I can do.
Hey there! I built a lot of things in my life but never a chair and I built yours. It did not come out perfect but not too bad. Got a question. What is a good blade for 12-in miter saw to cut yellow wood and white pine so I don't get the splintering? Thank you very much
First off I would check out a high quality blade. I use a CMT blade like this one amzn.to/3R5JYoS
I would also build a zero clearance plate if you haven't already. I have a video about them right here. czcams.com/video/ylmA6PxDX4c/video.htmlsi=pCxzWwtOKVnAiYSP
Got the length of the slats.
How are you weather proofing it?
I will be using a deck stain and sealer.
17 " I was wondering
Yea I forgot to mention them.
Could the seat of this chair be turned so the 20-inch boards were facing out so as to hide the end grain of the boards? I understand that i would then have to run the seat slats the oppposote dorection as well. But does this caery any structural integrity issues with it?
Zero structure issues. I have a few that are about 5 years old right now. My 6'6" 300+lb friend uses them almost every day.
Good chair build, I think I'll give this a rattle, you made it look easy.
You'll have to let me know how it goes.
Double would be cool. I can’t find the plans for this video on your Etsy site.
There were some delays with it. I will try to get them up as soon as possible.
Do you have plans available for these chairs? I didn't see them on the Etsy store
There was an issue with them. I'm correcting it and they'll be up as soon as possible.
Here are the plans if you were looking for them. www.etsy.com/listing/1741755605/digital-plans-on-how-to-make-a-patio
how long are the pieces that have the 15 degree angle
24½ I do a full breakdown while assembly.
Just to double check the material list:
4 2x4x6' & 1 2x6x6' correct? Or are they 8'?
I only counted 2 2x4 boards in your initial cuts. So I'm assuming the 10 17" pieces come from the other 2 2x4s. Is that correct?
They are 8ft in length. And yes the seat slats are 2x4.
Awesome build, I'm going to build it myself. I have a question though, at 3:26 you said to cut 2 2by4 pieces at 20" but they are extra as far as I can tell. What are they for or was that a mess up somehow? Don't be discouraged, you did awesome! I'm just a bit confused and wanted to know if I missed something. Thank you for the build and stay safe 💯.
They are for the sides of the seat framework. I believe I go over that when assembling everything.
Ok, I must have gotten a bit confused then. Like I said though, awesome build! Keep doing videos and stay safe.😁
I'm sorry, they were the 24" cut's. The time is right though if you want to check the video. I do appreciate the build and the feedback. I'm just trying to get it right.
@@charitiekbyrd1 those are the back side pieces that get the 15 degree cut on them.
I'm going to build these. Thanks for the video.
You'll have to let me know how it turns out. Good luck with your build.
The plans for the chair is not in your etsy shop . I checked at 1120 pm est

The DOUBLE chair will be heavy! How much does the single chair weigh? Do you find that the seat slats are too far apart to be comfortable to sit on? That chair looks like it would be great if it had a nice seat cushion. Thank you for telling us how to build it, so we don't actually need a set of plans.
A single weighs roughly 30-40lbs, I plan to do some weight reduction on the double however. Some nice 20x20 cushions should work great. Also I appreciate your support.
Can't find the plans for the chairs
@@kimrickel6100 I am working on getting them up as soon as possible. I will make a post on my community tab, the easiest way to see that is to subscribe if you aren't already,

Material specs need organized better and layout
This may work better for you than. www.etsy.com/listing/1741755605/digital-plans-on-how-to-make-a-patio
Edit: Double
Personally I would have clamped the entire seat section including the 17” pieces before I pre drilled and put the screws in.
I like the idea! I appreciate you sharing and your support.
Yes those are 17 " pieces 😅
Double , that nice work made it look like a simple build
Thank you very much. I appreciate the support.
Don't really see why you used 6" for the back legs. No reason that you cannot use the same 4"" as the rest of the chair, plus would be cheaper than the 6"
absolutely true, but it's the design aesthetic that was chosen for this particular build.
I can make the chair but I can sell it
I have sold 8 patio sets so far this summer. It's all about marketing.
@@cedarriverwoodworking I have been trying to sell through Etsy and Facebook market place with not a lot of luck
You didnt specify the length of the slats.
But I do.
where are these free plans? not finding them. thanks
If you watched the video, those are the free plans. The plans on etsy are not up yet.

Are your 10 cuts of 2X4 19”? You didn’t state in the video.
I do actually state it in the video.
Big profit, only if you can sell them. Facebook Marketplace is saturated with chairs like these. The way these guys make money isn't selling chairs they built. It's by making videos of chairs they built and putting them on youtube.
Dang! Imagine if those youtubers did the research and figured out these chairs only close about $30 to make and had sold patio sets for $200.... they could be making all kinds of money. Now that's big profits!
@@cedarriverwoodworking Keep dreaming, people are not that stupid to pay that much for shit furniture made of construction grade lumber. Admit it, the real money is in making the videos convincing rubes that they can get rich making crap chairs.
Flat seat and flat back make for a VERY uncomfortable seating. Try putting a slight curve to the back and seat. Will be 1000 % better.
Designed so a 20x20 cushion fits them, and they are perfectly comfortable without them.
Thanks!
No problem! Thanks for watching.
Double
Coming soon.
