Download or read book Easy to Build Adirondack Furniture written by Mary Twitchell and published by Storey Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building Adirondack furniture is a time-honored craft. Sturdy and rustic, this furniture can be a beautiful addition to any indoor decor, although it's most often used to set the scene outdoors. There, the furniture is subjected to a lifetime of abuse. Yearly it moves from somewhere hidden away (probably dark and musty winter storage) to front-and-center on the summer stage. Now, hour after hour it is beaten on by intense UV light, drenched in driving rains, then fried again in the summer sun. Through it all, the furniture patiently endures--ever handsome, ever inviting, ever lasting. To survive summertime abuse and the semiannual ritual of being dragged into and out of storage, outdoor furniture must be sturdy, rugged, and well built--all qualities that epitomize Adirondack pieces. This bulletin contains instructions for building an Adirondack chair, matching footstool, companion side table, and Westport chair (an ancestor of the modern-day slatted Adirondack chair). Each project will take the moderately skilled carpenter less than a day to fabricate; for the beginner, maybe a weekend. Learn how to choose the right lumber and hardware, complete with instructions for table, footstool, and the Westport chair.

Download or read book Adirindack Furniture Building written by Adam Melanie and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long way has been made in our version of the Adirondack chair from the early varieties that were characterized by flat backs and seats-and we've added a matching table to complete the set. Don't be put off by the curved slats or the large amount of parts required for this project. Despite the fact that there are a few angles and curves to be cut, there is no sophisticated joinery to be found - everything is held together using deck screws. We chose cedar for these parts because it is a durable wood that can withstand the environment and is readily available in the 3/4- and 1-inch thicknesses that we needed. If you want to keep the chairs out of the weather, you may use pine instead. GET YOUR COPY NOW !!!
