As many of you may know The Home Depot has several different types of clinics. One of them is called the "Do It Herself" clinic geared towards women (as the name implies). At the last Do It Herself clinic (which was held on my birthday BTW) I wasn't there but they made Adirondack chairs.
I got the plans off the internet (http://ext.homedepot.com/community/blog/how-to-build-adirondack-chairs-ana-white/) and decided to have a Do It Herself clinic in my shop with the visiting girls.
We each started with a pile of wood that I had cut to the right dimensions.
At first we worked on our own.
Eventually we ended up helping each other on each chair.
We had a few issues (fault of the plans) but we managed to make everything work.
And just a couple hours later we were resting in our new Adirondack chairs!
The chairs just need to be sanded a little and then a nice coat of paint applied. I'm thinking a bright red!
