Adirondack Chairs,#1 cypress , two weeks in the making ( only worked in the cool of the mornings). I haven't stained them yet, I did glue every joint. First flat work that I have done in years, fun ,but lathe work is faster...
Hi Larry; They appear to be Norm Abram's pattern? Up to 2006, I had made well over 100+. I used to donate 3 each year as prizes to the Recreation Committee of our summer trailer park. I gave up a few years ago.Adirondack Chairs,#1 cypress , two weeks in the making ( only worked in the cool of the mornings). I haven't stained them yet, I did glue every joint.

Don't lament - I think they raised the price to $39.00 the last time I saw them there and that was a couple of years ago,Boy, I wish you had have told me before I built these.
Has anyone here ever used the Lee Valley plan for a folding Adirondack chair? We're thinking of making a set of those.

All my friends wanted me to make them some. Until they found out how much the wood cost.
I didn't use Lee Valley plans but agree with the other poster that they don't fold up that small. I only made two folding then I made 4 or 5 non folding.Has anyone here ever used the Lee Valley plan for a folding Adirondack chair? We're thinking of making a set of those.
