Nice looking work, the only thing I can't see is the beer on the arm.

How did you secure the arm rests to the front legs?

Have a great wood working weekend!
John

Hi asrubin

You did a nice job and I sure like the wide arm rest, a nice place to put the plate of food when you eat outside this summer plus a nice place to hold your drink as well
Now all you need, is to make a foot stool and when your done with lunch you can pull the TV ( pacifier ) over and just take a short nap on the patio and watch the ball game

Hi Alan,

Well now, who told you that you weren't a woodworker? Whoever it is, they were wrong. You've twice displayed that you are a woodworker so there you go.

Keep on rockin'.....looking very nice Alan.

Ed.....:-)

Nice one Alan If your golf is as good as your woodworking you must be a mean player

For testing, please ship the chair via UPS, have them deliver it to my front porch and I'll test it for you. I cannot guarantee its return, however.....



Great job!

thanks to all for the wonderful remarks....I did have a good time making this chair. No footstool as if I get to relaxed, my wife might make me sleep out on the deck. The arms were secured with a block under each arm, screwed to the front leg. If you need a photo let me know and I will post.
thanks for looking
Alan
