Make it yourself: How to make a pallet chair in three steps.
This is probably the easiest pallet chair to make yourself.
You will only need one pallet and some selftapping screws.
Therefore it will only cost you a little bit of money to make this chair, if any at all.
This simple garden chair is made in three steps.
- First you have to seperate the pallet as shown on the construction drawing below.
Count the pieces and remove exactly those planks as shown on the drawings. - Then insert piece one of the chair into piece B.
A is the backrest and B will be a seat for the chair. - In the last step we will attach the legs under the chairs frontside.
Make those short legs from the leftovers after dismantling the pieces A and B.
You can choose to either fixate the legs or make them foldable for easy storage.
