This is a DIY Plan for you who want to create something really nice for the garden. You will receive clear instructions to build a classic Adirondack chair, a comfortable and stylish outdoor chair with a built-in footrest that easily pulls out when you want to lean back and relax.
The chair has slightly softer shapes and a neat design, which makes it a bit more challenging to build than our simpler models. But don’t worry, we have done everything to simplify the construction. You will get templates for all parts that do not have straight cuts, and they are designed to be printed at 100% size on a regular A4 printer. Cut out, trace onto the wood, and saw out with a simple jigsaw.
A sander is also good to have, as it will make the result nice and save you time.
The finished chair will be both practical and comfortable to sit in, and the best part – you built it yourself!

Well presented instructions and plans. Fairly easy to follow.
There are a couple of areas where the design could be improved, so I made a few changes as I went along. Overall I am very happy.
