Just finished the first one. I converted the wood to 5/4 which took a little rework but the results were fine. Going to use this one as my templates to make a set of 6 chairs. Thank you very much for the free templates.

@tswwoodworking 19 дней назад

That’s awesome! Made my day.

@davidseddon8795 21 день назад

Excellent tutorial. Thank you!

@tswwoodworking 19 дней назад

You're very welcome!

@alexreid4131 8 месяцев назад

This is excellent and so generous of you to offer the plans for free. I will store these plans away for the spring when I hope to make a few of these God willing. Thanks again ❤

@tswwoodworking 8 месяцев назад

If you’re planning on making more than one, I’d make hardboard templates to pattern from. Glad you liked it. Good luck!

@alexreid4131 8 месяцев назад

@@tswwoodworkingyes indeed that’s my plan. I tend to make my templates out of MDF so hopefully that will also suffice for this project. Love the design and look forward to your future projects. Happy Thanksgiving buddy 🦃

Thank you! Have a good Holidays!

@wimpaulussen6409 8 месяцев назад

Thank you again for your generosity with the plans. I already am using the plans for the non folding version.

@tswwoodworking 8 месяцев назад

That’s awesome! It makes me glad to hear they are being used.

@user-oe4bw5pt5v 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for the templates!! Made it relatively easy to make. Look forward to your future builds.

@tswwoodworking 6 месяцев назад

Awesome! Thank you!

If you framed it with 3/4 marine grade plywood and decked it (seat, back and arms) with cedar, it would last decades. The decking would be replaceable and the frame everlasting. I think the plywood idea is genius. No splitting or cracking around the bolts... Beautiful chair.

@tswwoodworking Месяц назад

Thank you! But, I mainly used the plywood to make my prototype. I like the weight of the cedar, easy to move around. Main thing is to keep busy doing what you enjoy doing. Thanks again

Who else is making two of these for their wife for Christmas? 😁

@adamreese9190 21 день назад

Great video and thank you for the plans. I can wait to start my chairs.Did the 5 pieces of 1"x6"x12' only make 1 chair?

@tswwoodworking 18 дней назад

Yes, that’s correct. That’s what I’d start with. Should be clear when you print out templates and lay it out. Make sure printer size is 100%. Many of them auto adjust.

@Wolfy459. 3 месяца назад

Thank you for the free plans!! Would it be possible to make the back concave (curve contour)?

@tswwoodworking 3 месяца назад

The upper and lower stretchers where back slats attach are concaved. It’ll give you a curved back. When you print out templates, you’ll see. I probably made a comment about it in the video too. Good luck!

@joaquindgarza 6 месяцев назад

Beautiful chair. What size spacers did you use for the seat slats?

@tswwoodworking 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! I spaced them about 3/16”. If I’m lazy, sometimes I just use two drill bits as the spacers to get the spacing the way I want.

@user-zg8kj2ue6d 4 месяца назад

G’day, all the way from Australia! Very new to woodworking. Is there supposed to be holes on the back box verticals to attach the armrest ? Help needed as it is doing my head in 😂

@tswwoodworking 4 месяца назад

Yes, pivot holes are 12.5” up on vertical pieces. If you look at 12:00 on video. Just center them on vertical pieces. Hope that helps! Good luck!

@dewaynehill8137 4 месяца назад

What do you use for hardware to connect the folding piece

@tswwoodworking 4 месяца назад

Carriage (stove) bolts. Except for one set of lag screws. I think I listed hardware on first page of pdf. Good luck with project!

@user-zr4vd3rk9m 12 дней назад

Hello. what about the rocking adirondack?

@tswwoodworking 7 дней назад

I’ll have to look into that. However, a rocking Windsor Chair is one that’s on my life list

@tazo1jd 3 месяца назад

do you also had a blue print drawing for ASSY

@tswwoodworking 3 месяца назад

No, just the templates that you can access through link in the video description. If you make them and follow video, you’ll do great.

@norbertfaron2039 3 месяца назад

I checked my printer everything looks good. Some dimensions are OK some are off.

@tswwoodworking 3 месяца назад

Sorry for the trouble. I reprinted all the pages out. They are 1x1” squares. Only thing I can think of is when you overlap the pages to line up the 1” squares that is where the issue is. Since half the square is on one page and half is on the next page, they overlap a bit. Since I printed it out, I’ll draw in some alignment triangles that overlap the pages. Then, upload the file again.

@tswwoodworking 3 месяца назад

I added some alignment triangles on the pdf to help when taping the pages together and reloaded pdf with a new link. My printer did give me the right lengths when I printed it out. Hope that helps. Sorry you were having trouble. I thought the 1" squares would work for people to align the pages. I should have added the triangles before. Good luck.

@norbertfaron2039 4 месяца назад

Hello good job I really love this chair but I’m having issues with measurements pice on page 3,4,5 Says 21 3/4 when I put template together and I measured it’s only 21 1/4 and also the armrest on page 1,2,3 the measurement says 28 1/16 and when I measured the template it’s only 27 1/8 and page 10,11,12 supposed to be 21 inches and 22 inches top one is 20 1/2 and bottom one is 21 1/2 can you check measurements please

@tswwoodworking 4 месяца назад

Is your printer set to 100%? They should be 1” squares. Some printers auto adjust. Let me know if that was it.

@user-zr4vd3rk9m 2 месяца назад

Hello, can you tell me what size the armrest should be in centimeters?

@tswwoodworking 2 месяца назад

Yes the arms are 71.12 x 13.97 cm (which is 28 x 5.5 inches)

@joshl8015 7 месяцев назад

Good content but you’re missing a lot of information. There’s a lot of pieces of wood that’s used, that isn’t on the build sheet. Also you don’t say what bolts or lags go where. Maybe a step by step with pictures as you add each piece would be better.

@tswwoodworking 7 месяцев назад

Thanks Josh, All the straight square parts are in list on first page. All the parts with curves are on the template pages to cut out, which also show bolt hole placement. Lag screws are the only odd hardware that I show at about 11:15. Hope that helps!
