Make it yourself: Seat assembly for a homemade lounge garden chair.
In this part of the instructions you will see how to make the seat for wooden garden chairs and benches.
These lounge chairs are made from four panels, just like on the drawings for a wood garden bench.
- The planks G plus L make the frontside of the chairs seating.
This assembly adds strength to the chair seat, and it enhances its thickness. - You can place one or two supporting planks under the chair seat, as shown on the third construction drawing below.
This reinforcement will be out of sight, and for that reason it is possible here to use some old recycled wood.
