Adirondack Chair - new design

Post by Phil »

The design and plans for this version of an Adirondack chair came from Fine Woodworking magazine. I cut the back slats and the curved back leg with a slot for the seat slats on my Shopbot. This chair is far more comfortable than a traditional Adirondack chair.

A recent issue, within the past two years. I'll check and post later.

Nice looking. What's the longest piece you had to cut?
Did you CNC the parts for the arms or follow the FW plans?

That very same Adirondack Chair is available on {kings fine woodworking Inc} on YouTube I purchased it the templates but I have yet to do a cut out on the CNC. Did you just build it from the diagram or did you use your CNC to cut it out and then assemble it? Since I consider myself a newbie to woodworking CNC and aspire, it will probably take me till next summer before I build one. LOL
