In this video I create modular outdoor patio furniture for our new covered patio space. The best thing about these so far are that they are modular in design and can be easily made into many different orientations. I built all parts of the furniture using cedar 2x4s and pretty standard outdoor patio furniture cushions.

Love the simplicity and versatility. A second foot stool is a must but you may want to add a slope to follow the contour of the your legs [similar to a chaise lounge - or you could just build a modular chaise lounge for the other corner] when you are chillin' out. I would also add both a flip up table for the arm rests and some modular tables between the chairs for food, drinks or anything you might want to rest on a table while watching the super bowl 🙂. Something else you might add, and something I will definitely add to mine are drawers for kids toys and other stuff you want to find a home for...especially when you are space constrained as I am at my cottage. What I like about your design is that I can manufacture as much or as little as I need based on my space limitations on my deck sand it will not break the bank ...! I am new to your channel and watched the building of your covered deck and love your attention to detail. I myself am someone that does a lot of work on his own as well but do appreciate the value of having a helper to move the heavy stuff or support the many aspects of building. I probably would have used clear stone around the posts to promote water seepage and reduce early rot (even though the specs say it will last for years) ... Great job sharing and explaining your rationale and thought process as you are doing your projects.

What a Craftsman! Loved many of your videos. Very Creative. Kudos all around!

Really like the modular approach. You mention that they're relatively easy to move around, but one thing you or others might want to consider is to add a pair of wheels to the back of the base so that you could tip the chairs back and easily roll them around.

Thanks for the plans. I have looked at a ton of different videos and this is just what I was looking for.

You've been teasing with photos on social media lately. Finally! Well worth the wait. These look beautiful! Amazing job! Thank you for sharing your experience. We still do not have the patio, so these are down the road for us, but they look better than anything I've seen retail near me and you've described it so well. The one lesson I've taken from this is to just put a table in the corner. 😀 Congrats!

If someone wanted to save some money building this, you could make couches or loveseats. That would cut down a little bit on the material cost. But obviously you'd miss some of the modularity of it. I say that only because the likelihood of someone just using one or multiple chairs without arm rests is pretty slim. I do love the joinery and the overall design of these. Great job!

You could add a rubber spacer or something similar to the arm rests to get a bit of a press fitting when you drop them into the brackets if you wanted to reduce how much they moved.

Thanks I appreciate it, planted twice as many as were in the last video and replaced a few dead ones. I like that you noticed!

@Qwiv Месяц назад

Note, use SS staples in Cedar. The oils in the Cedar will react with Galv. Staples and create black streaks. Might be ok under a cushion. This applies to the pocket screws and deck screws as well. A cheaper alternative is the epoxy coated deck screws. If you don’t burn the coating off installing them, they hold up for a long time as well.

@ThatTechTeacher427 Месяц назад

Good info I actually used a mixture of stainless steel and galvanized staples on the webbing (I ran out the SS and they were more expensive) but I am curious to see a difference over time. I did not think about the pocket hole screws. Wonder if the Blue coated screws from Kreg work well. Thanks

@Qwiv Месяц назад

@@ThatTechTeacher427 yah, the blue coated ones work much better. Kreg makes SS ones as well. If the stain is well hidden, it’s not so bad, but it runs under the stain and will follow the grain and bleed out from there. Keeping them dry helps. It’s worth swapping them out and just reusing your original screws. The Kreg screws do well being removed and reused.

Great build. 1 Suggestion... have the ottoman convert to end tables. The cushions could have a tray on the other side. Thoughts?

@ThatTechTeacher427 Месяц назад

I like that! There may be a part 2 to this... Thanks

@bierbarrel 7 дней назад

So you used 20 ten foot 2x4's total in your project? Im asking because where I live an 8 footer runs about 18 dollars but Im headed to an area at the end of September where I can pick them up for about 8 dollars each. I want to get a semi accurate count for my project. It may be on the plans but I have not looked them over that closely yet....thx again

@aaaron19 Месяц назад

do you feel like you need a little bit of velcro for the cushions to prevent sliding off? Especially for the foot rest? Awesome build!

@ThatTechTeacher427 Месяц назад

Great point! My wife brought that up but we couldnt make up our mind in case we want to flip the cushions over to use the other side.

@Mattlikesbeer Месяц назад

Really great build! One thought that popped in was if you wanted to make it 100% modular couldn't you have switched which brackets you put on the the left arm rest and left chair so as to make assembling it a little less convenient by having to slide the arm rest up into the chair bracket (or drop chair into the left arm rest bracket)? But in that case all brackets would be in the same direction and you'd be able to put both arm rests on any chair rather than only on the one single left chair?

@ThatTechTeacher427 Месяц назад

I believe if I am reading this correct the armrest would fall straight down as the brackets dont lock together.

@CaptainBlueTech 15 дней назад

@@ThatTechTeacher427 I know you posted this a month ago so sorry to necro this a bit. I believe if you added those same feet to the bottom of the arm rests it would push and hold it up and lock it UP into the standard bracket keeping it from falling, and adding an extra washer or two could let it sit high enough to lock into the chair its on so it would never fall off unless you picked up the chair. Additionally while its nice to have the seats fully modular I would personally have inset a T nut on the arm rests and had a hole through the chairs to put 2-3 bolts with a bought or 3D printed head on it to get them finger tight and keep them on the chair better and help prevent movement or damage to the brackets from people (especially kids) leaning on them. The end cap chairs are going to stay end caps 95% of the time you move or reconfigure them so Its worth the 5 extra min to unbolt them in my opinion; you would need to drill 2-3 holes in all of the chairs (that are hidden once assembled) but those holes would have the added benefit of being a hidden storm tie system if you threaded steel cable through them and looped the extra cable under the end seats out of view when not in use and you can uncoil it and strap it to weights or a pole or something. One last benefit is you can keep the same design if you want to have both a big sofa with the chairs or if you want to have more individual chairs that you want arm rests on.

@chrisgreen1525 Месяц назад

Two upgrade suggestions: 1. add a board parallel to the base on the top of the seat back and cut a cup holder into it. 2. add cupholders to the arm rests.

@ThatTechTeacher427 Месяц назад

Man who appreciates a cup holder! Good idea!

@imaginitivity7853 Месяц назад

I get that it's modular, so easier if everything is the same dimensions, but you've custom made furniture that only suits your body shape. Seems like you missed an opportunity to tailor it to other family members. My wife hates having dangling feet, and the distance from front to back of those cushions I think even I as an average sized guy would find too big.
