In the final part of our Adirondack build, we'll fit the back slats, the seat slats and
the all important arm rest bottle opener. We'll put the arm rests in place temporarily
to assist in dialing in the back rest angle. 17 degrees will do it
With the bevel angle on the upper back support done we'll temporarily position the back slats
to mark out the top curve. Now we could use the flexible ruler.
But a trash can lid will do just as well
Backslats cut we'll countersink then glue and screw
Before the final fit of the arms we'll need to drill out the bottle recess
The guide piece here will keep the bit square since the center pin has been removed specifically
for drilling flat bottomed holes The down draft table is doing it's thing here
Now for the arms Having taken care of the squeeze out we'll
fit the back rest
Back rest done we'll finish off the arms With the back rest seat slats and arm rests
secured that just leaves the all important bottle top opener
And a wax to finish it off A cheap and simple Adirondack chair
Cheers
