Plans – the armrest
Step 13. FixTo secure with nails or screws. the armrest frames.
The plans for the armrest.
Note: The dimensionsAny of the three linear measurements, length, breadth and depth. for the individual pieces [l] and [m] are given in Step 2.
For the frame I used 5/4 x 6 pressure treated wood (actual 1.25 x 5.5). I don’t have a power miter saw so I cut each length with a circular saw then ripped into two identical pieces with a table saw. Cut the angles for each piece with a table saw. The top and seats are T&G pine. This may not hold up outside so I didn’t glue them. I can always replace them with the same pressure treated wood. If I do this I will edge dowel them together rather than use a rod or a batten as shown in the plans.
Thanks for the plans.
