Instructions
This garden chair is constructed solely from 100x50 (2x4) and 100x25 (1x4) lumber. Both are common stock sizes and can be obtained from most lumber stores.
Note that when lumber is dressed or surfaced, the finished (actual) size (width and thickness) is less than the nominal size. The sizes referred to in this project are the actual sizes.
There is further information on lumber and sizes on the previous page along with detailed drawings of every part showing dimensions, angle cuts and exact placement of required bolt holes.

Step 1.
Cut all the individual pieces to the sizes and shapes according to the plans on the previous page.

Step 2.
Mark and drill 10mm (3/8") bolt holes where required according to the plans on the previous page.

Step 3.
Assemble the two side frames.
Lay members [e] and [d] on even ground or bench and then lay members [a],[b] and [c] on top with the bolt holes in line. Then bolt the members together.
Screw the bottom of member [c] to member [b].
Refer to the side view plan if you need to.
Note that the two side frames will be a mirror image of each other. See fig.1.



Step 4.
Lay the frames on their backs to commence fixing the slats. See fig.2.
Space the side frames 640mm (25 1/2") apart and ensure that they are parallel.
Pre-drill screw holes through the slats (two at each meeting) and then screw the slats in place to members [c]. See the front view plan for placement.

Step 5.
Stand the chair frames upright ensuring members [d] are parallel. Pre-drill screw holes through the seat slats (two at each meeting) and then screw the slats in place. See the top view plan for placement.

Step 6.
Pre-drill screw holes through the two arm rests [i] and then screw them in place to the arm rest supports [e].
All done!
