I just finished cutting all the pieces and the slot for the front support and will start assembling this week. Thanks so much for the good instruction and plans from a 75-year-old who loves the smell of wood. Hope it looks similar to yours when done.🤞
Used your side dimensions to build a back yard garden bench. Used the angles from another video. That way I had a sloped seat as well as the back. Used 2x4s for the back and seat instead of 1x4s. Thanks for the help. Turned out really great!
Great plans! I used pressure treated lumber because cedar is hard to come by and expensive these days and widened it by 2 inches. I also beefed up the seat and back slats with 5/4 PT deck treads because I had them left over. Very Happy with the outcome. Once it dries out I'll seal it and paint it and it should last a heck of a long time!
Same here. Using treated lumber and having it sit 2 inches higher. I have my kids (and my handyman) building it RN for fathers day. Will last forever and mean tons when my handyman friend is dead and my kids are out of the house. It will be more than a chair to me.
Hey man thank you for the video, I couldn't afford the plans but I ended up using your video to get a basic idea to build these beautiful chairs. Thank you so much from a young woodworker. If you need any black walnut slabs let me know brother. Thank you
Very nice chairs. Sadly I'm living in country where it's almost impossible to get a inch tape measure. So had to redraw the chair in SketchUp to get consistent metric measurements to build them. All said and done they really nice, even cut the leg shorter on two of them for the mother inlaw that is really short... great, thx
good afternoon it was my first job you sneezed at me in 2018 i had an accident being unable to work because i decided to sit down and do something to pass my time i saw your videos
Built mine, turned out pretty darn sweet. I did use pine for price but still turned out really nice. Already have people wanting some. Thanks for the video and lists.
Great plans, thanks! I had to make one modification - I lack the skills to make the notch in the front legs for the 2x6 (gave up after two tries) so just cut the 2x6 shorter (25”) and used 4” screws from the sides. Seems to hold OK. I made two of them, and (once I got over my roadblock of the notches) they were super easy to build.
I bought the plans with the intent to modify for some RH cushions I picked up. Could you tell us the depth of the seat, from the front to the back rest slats?
Great work! I'm trying to do this without a table saw and with scrap wood. I love how after the 100 steps, you just say, "and that's all there is to it" at the end. =)
great video I made on patio chair from another video and I had a hard time figuring out the angels, I originally wanted to make 4 but I stopped at one because I didn't like that process. I'm going to give this one a try it looks easier to understand thanks
i kinda liked how the screws looked at the end, i guess its up to personal preferences but i would have definitely kept them! Really nice project thow! probably doing it asap
Thanks for amazing video and details. I used basic concepts from your video and the plan but built using walnut. For structure i used walnut gun stocks which i bought from the company which looks like going out of business. So used 4 gun stocks $5 each and for seat/back and armrest used some other reclaimed really old walnut milled in 1952. Enjoyed the overall build process. I hope you like how it came out.
Thanks so much for your awesome projects! I would love to see you do something in a taller (bar height) version of this, maybe even an outdoor pub table to match?
Hi There, I am planning to make the patio chair and I am pretty new at wood work. You mentioned that you can use pocket holes. I have the Kregg Jig and my question is where would you use the pocket holes in the plans.
Nice project! I may have to build a couple of these. The only thing I might consider adding would be decorative supports underneath the armrest overhang. Great job!
Nice design, only thing not covered in the video is ensuring that your framing is as square as possible! Otherwise you may run into issues as you progress during the build. I discovered this the hard way when I made the chair. Your initial framing has to be as square as possible!!!
Great video! Quick question, Is there any benefit to finishing the slats before you assemble? Seems like you would have unfinished sides of the boards that moisture could get into. Would that matter?
Hey Pete, very nice work. Your Carpenter skills are fantastic. Smooth video editing, and amazing quality. Great voice overs. Over all, I absolutely love watching and learning from your videos. And I've given your website a few visits as well. Keep up the great work! Cheers from Wisconsin. ❤
I just bought these plans. Appreciate them! Do you find the straight angle of the sitting surface to be ok? Im thinking of modifying them to slope a little from front to back. Thanks again.
Hi Pete. Thanks so much for putting this video together and putting the plans out there for us to use. I was wondering if you thought it would be okay to use 2 inch brad nails instead of screws to fasten the seat and back slats to the 2x4s? Thanks again.
Just wondering if glue and tac nails would be strong enough to hold the slats in place rather than screws. I have already made 2 of these chairs. Thanks for the design. I have some friends who want me to make some for them and i just wish to save time by not having to fill the screw holes. Cheers.
How much would you say you spent in wood to make one chair? I know prices vary with places, but I was curious in general how much you spent. They look great!
Hi DIY Pete. After reviewing many DIY Deck Furniture plans, this is by far my favorite. Do you have a loveseat or sofa options? I understand I can use your build size and enlarge it for my needs but I'm not sure how much extra support would be needed if I do that. I would appreciate your comments. Thank you.
I`m retired and have a small shop where I perform woodturning, create musical instruments, and some cabinetry. I have a shelf full of woodworking textbooks - but I found this woodworking guide, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The comprehensiveness of this book is surprising. It has decent coverage on every topic.?
What kind of wood putty do you use? Because I've used wood putty in the past that said stainable but when I go to apply stain it shows where the screws are. Thanks for any info, keep up the projects I love them!!! 👍
Thanks Doug! I use a minwax putty. You can still see them although it helps blent and looks better than the screw. I'll sometimes take a little paint brush and do a second dab just on the putty to help darken it.
Thank you so much for the video, very helpful, I did two chairs and it came out nice, I am very happy with the results. thanks again and God bless you.
I made these chairs & im ready to stain them, what wood putty do you use for the screw holes, I have yet to find a putty that doesn’t leave white splotches,
64 Yr old female... followed your plans very happy. If I can do it ....

I'll give this one a shot. Thanks.
The finished product makes it look like it was hard to make, but this guide shows it’s easy if you know what you’re doing
thank god I found you, finally one that showed step by step perfect!

Cheers from Atlanta! I’m a rookie woodworker but I’ve enjoyed this build thus far
Great to hear from you! I hope all is well down in Atlanta!

I'm making a full set of a sofa and two chairs from your plans for our screened in porch. Made the first chair and it runed out great.
I recently built a chair that looks like this but I think yours is better. I want to try again following your steps.
Great work. Will try next March now it is too cold.
New woodworker here but I will definitely make these-thank you for the upload!
Awesome, good luck!

Two of these will match the double chair bench that I'm going to build next weekend. Thanks.
Have fun with the builds Scott! Cheers
I made mine using hockey sticks for the back, seat and arm rests. Looks great thanks to this guide
Simple design but I love it

Hey hi from Glasgow Scotland love the video great looking furniture. Shame we don’t get the sun here so I can sit out on the ones I built 😀👍
Hi Spencer! Hope all is well in Glasgow! I was there in 2014 and thought it was a neat place. Get some sunshine and enjoy those chairs!
Hi There, I am planning to make the patio chair and I am pretty new at wood work. You mentioned that you can use pocket holes. I have the Kregg Jig and my question is where would you use the pocket holes in the plans.

Great video - so I bought your plans and made this chair today. Thanks.

Cool have fun!
Ryobi rules i love their tools, great video thanks
Fantastic now where can I buy this chair because I am not good at carpentry work?
Great video! Quick question, Is there any benefit to finishing the slats before you assemble? Seems like you would have unfinished sides of the boards that moisture could get into. Would that matter?
Best looking one out there

Thank you Morgan! I really appreciate it. I hope your builds are all going great and that all is well over in Wisconsin! Keep up the good work.
Is this big enough for cushions? I don’t see the measurements so I’m wondering if cushions would push you too far forward?
Получилось отлично и не дорого !!!!
Спасибо MACTEP! Хорошего дня!
si m das la medida de esa silla maestro muchas vendiciones
I just bought these plans. Appreciate them! Do you find the straight angle of the sitting surface to be ok? Im thinking of modifying them to slope a little from front to back. Thanks again.

Curious if the plan could be modified so that the seat angles back some. How would that work?
Awesome chair.
Thank you!
Carpentry is such a beautiful skill
Thanks for watching!
I build two already thanks
Awesome!
Fantastic build and Fantastic commentary. Thank you!

Great project, notice you are a Ryobi fan!
Thanks for watching! I used to use a lot of ryobi tools. Not so much anymore, but definitely an affordable tool brand.
Enjoy your videos. Am building my own deck furniture.
Awesome!
Thank you Peter

How much would you say you spent in wood to make one chair? I know prices vary with places, but I was curious in general how much you spent. They look great!
If you download the plans, they're free, from his webpage it gives you a complete list of materials and general prices
Hi! At the time, it was about $125. Unfortunately wood prices have skyrocketed lately, so it's going to be more these days. Cheers!
Thanks! Yep, a breakdown of costs are in the plans.
Excellent! This will be one of my first builds!
Many thanks!
Wow!!! So simple and nice.
Great job
Thanks!

Hey Fran! Thanks so much! I don't have a sofa plan, but I have a bench similar to this chair. czcams.com/video/E9lGS9PqB2o/video.html Cheers!

Looks like just what the Dr ordered! Thanks

Nice chair. You mention 2x6 but seems like besides the arm and back support everything else is made of 2x4. Right?
Yes, mostly 2x4 or 1 by material
Nice work and good explained 👍
Excelente trabalho, parabéns, será que consigo fazer? Veremos!!!
