Excellent design! Really like these and I expect there will be one on my back deck before the summer ends :)
Great project Carl!

Carl Jacobson

John Heisz Thank you very much John!

Jerry Paul

Nice! I'm keeping this one in my 'watch later' list. I've been wanting to make one of these for some time.
Kind of a surprise to see you away from the lathe too. Awesome!
As always, another inspiring video. Thanks again!

Beautiful chair and great tutorial! That will go great around a fire pit. Definitely on my project to-do list. Thanks for providing the tutorial and the inspiration.

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much!

I have been wanting to make one of these for a while. I'm glad I saw you do the threading trick with the drill. Very cool project.

Carl Jacobson

CMR Woodworks | Chris McDowell Thank you Chris, the drills a life saver!

Babak Sadeghpour

Very nice looking chair, and great job on your videos. I love how you explain things in detail and make the picture in picture to show all the work and yet not wasting time. Subscribed and added this to favorites to try and build it.

Thank you for sharing and keep up the amazing work.

Carl Jacobson

Babak Sadeghpour Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for subscribing!

thomazneto58

Hey, Buddy Carl. My wife is very excited and waiting for me to make these beautiful chairs. Thank you for being always teaching us to do so many beautiful and practical things in a simple way. A big hug from this friend here in Brazil and follower of his videos.

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much! I really appreciate that!

oaksho

I need more shop time, that's a great design Carl. I would think it could be made quite easy with very limited tools as well. Thanks for showing this one Carl.
All the best

coreyobr26

Love these chairs. I have made a few now.. I used left over deck spindles to make smaller ones for kids as well. Thanks for sharing.

Carl Jacobson

That's awesome, thank you!

Trev Sutton

Great looking chair Carl ! I was going to make a couple of adirondack chairs for the deck in my garden this summer but now you've given me a second option!! I do like the way they fold which would make them better for storage through the winter! Hmmm decisions decisions!?!?
Great video Carl thanks for posting and keep up the good work, Trev

Carl Jacobson

Trev Sutton Thank you very much Trev, I like the way they fold up too!

Ian Maude

Great project Carl :) Another possibility would be to use a washer between each wood section along the rod. This would help stop the wood squeaking as it lowers the friction.

Carl Jacobson

Ian Maude Thank you Ian, I thought about putting contrasting wooden washers between each piece for effect too.

Carl, that turned out absolutely beautiful!

Carl Jacobson

Darbin Orvar Thank you very much Linn!

gonchitens

Everything you make looks clean and wonderful. Thank you very much for your videos, I really enjoy them.

Carl Jacobson

gonchitoakash Thank you very much!

Paul Lockwood

Never seen a chair like that before. Uses a lot of timber. I guess that you were using locking nuts on the end of the threaded bar. As well as a larger model for yourself you could also make a smaller version for kids. Great work.

Matt Stephens

4y↑1

The first time I saw one of these was in Belize on my honeymoon in May this year. Can't wait to put one together for an anniversary gift! We cut down a cedar tree a few months before the wedding and had the trunk milled, so I'll be able to use some of that lumber in the build. It should make for a great gift! Thanks for the tutorial.

Derek Oliver

Great job on the chair. One of those Kentucky stick chairs has been on my list of things to do for 3 or 4 years now. Maybe it will get done this year.

Carl Jacobson

Derek Oliver Thank you Derek! I'd like to see some pics if you do one.

Man the editing of this video is great. It was a pleasure to watch. Good work on that and great work on the chair!

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much!

wudchuck

Very nice Carl, I've been making this style of chair for about 20 years. I have my own little tweeks. I use Douglas fir or red wood. Unless you get lucky and find some really good Cedar, I found it to be too weak.
I like a taller back and use rope instead of allthread. I also make a a small chair for kids. Again very nice work!

Carl Jacobson

+wudchuck Thank you, and thanks for the tips this was my first one.

Brent Nicol

Great design. It look good to build a couple of these. Summer is up in Cape Town now and most of the time will be outdoors where these chairs will come handy. Thank you for sharing.

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much Brent!

knives&stuff

Awesome, the chair looks great! Good to see you do something different. The music, camera angles, efit and explination were very good!

Carl Jacobson

knives&stuff Thank you Maarten!

The Dressdude

I made one of these today. As I am a student, it was kind of a budget build - handsaw, a sheet of sand paper and cheap planks. It did, however, turn out pretty cool, which I guess goes to show that a good design outweighs fancy stuff : )

Carl Jacobson

Very cool!! This is a great project!!

James Pugh

Just saw your channel and subscribed. Love the cedar folding chair and will be making 2 for the porch. Would really be nice to have the drill measurements included with the cut list and have it all in one place so we didn't have to keep going back to the video. Just a thought, People------never happy, right

Andy BravotwozeroUS

How is it that people don't like this video? Is it because there's no turning involved? I personally love watching your various woodworking skills Carl other than turning. Really nice chair and one I will probably make myself.

Carl Jacobson

Andy BravotwozeroUS Thank you very much Andy!

Max Moeller

Great work Carl! I love the leg design, gives it a nice look!
I decided to build a few myself based off your plans and the only problem I have is getting the chair to fold. I tightened every joint so all the wood pieces are just touching. Is that how you did it? At least for me by that point the wood was binding so much that the chair wouldn't fold. I can't tell exactly from the pictures but it looks like you pulled all the joints tight so each wood piece touches the next, correct? I had to crank on those that joints to get them to this point afraid I was going to break something.

Carl Jacobson

Thank you Max!! I left them a little loose, because mine was stiff when I folded it too.

Bill Davis

Love how this chair folds up for storage, another item for the to-do-list. Gotta make one for me and then another one for me when the daughter "borrows" mine...

Carl Jacobson

Bill Davis lol Thank you Bill, they fold up... you can hide it ;)

Deevla

Great video, great chair, and great music !
One tip, if You don't mind... when the chair is in "open" position, the bottom of the legs should be cut with an angle, so there' will be a better contact with the ground - more stable.

Carl Jacobson

Deevla Thank you very much! Thanks that's a great tip!

WigWagWorkshop

Neat-O - Never seen one of these before, they look comfy. Thank You for the tip, with the threaded rod.

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much Andy!

Ryan Frasier

Super cool!!! I’ve had this on my watch later for a couple years about every 6 months I watch it again. One of these days I’ll make some! Thanks for the cut list, did you just cut it out of a couple boards?

Carl Jacobson

2y↑1

Thank you Ryan! Yes I cut all the pieces out of a few Cedar boards.

Alex Camilo

rob dzie

Beautiful chair I love the design

Carl Jacobson

***** Thank you!

wakely wanderer

this is a great design. i had to go to 1/4" holes to make the seat and back pieces fan out properly. if you cut the rod with a dremel metal cutting wheel, the threads will allow a nut to easily start over the cut so you don't have to deal with all that excess rod. i used lock nuts. mine is cherry which is pretty but heavy. next one will be cedar. thanks for another fun project.

Carl Jacobson

wakely wanderer Thank you very much, I'm glad you not only enjoyed it, but made one!

This is a great project Carl .I just happens I have to make two garden chair so I think I am going to have a go at them

frank howarth Thank you Frank, ya it's a great feature!

Jens Woelms

Almost spent an hour watching your videos enjoyed it alot! gives alot of inspiration on fun stuff to do!
Just an input on the chair. how come you dont oil it up before assembling all the parts? Wouldnt it be alot easier for you to cover all areas properly? :)

Carl Jacobson

+Jens Woelms Thank you very much Jens! This was my first one, and I wanted to make sure it went together nicely first.

Castel Valle

Thank you for this project is fascinating
I am convinced that after so much work to assemble the chair.
You can rest in it
Well the truth I have a lot of strips of wood of different sizes I thought make armchairs, but do this much better chairs

Once more Thank you
I wish you all the best in the world

Carl Jacobson

Castel Valle Thank you very much Castel! I'd like to see some pictures!

B C

Hi Carl, Thank you for all the great videos, you're incredibly talented! I'm new to woodworking and I am currently making the stick chair, its been a lot of fun...I'm using 1/4" inch threading rod an want know what drill bit size should be used for the holes? 1/4" inch or larger. thanks again!

Carl Jacobson

+Bryan Campbell (radamicu) Thank you very much Bryan! I used a 1/4" bit, put wax on the rod it will help them go in easier.

🌸 Tiffany too🌸

Wow i just seen this in my gardener magazine and needed to know how to make it. Way cool

Lynn Torson

I spied this chair a few months ago and spent an hour trying to convince myself I could reproduce this chair and decided to give up until now. THANKS for this video, it was great. Lynn

Carl Jacobson

Thank you Lynn! Let me know how it turns out :) It's not as hard as it might look.

Bill Blake

Great presentation. I will redo the drawings in metric for my high school woodwork class - I'm a teacher. I think the students would really enjoy making one - perhaps even downsizing for 'small' kids' Do you think it would work to build in a step to the leg shapes that could act as a stop block rather than adding on and extra block. Also, can you see any reason why you wouldn't use acorn or dome nuts to the ends of the threaded rods? Cheers from downunder!

Carl Jacobson

9y↑1

Bill Blake Thank you Bill,
That's a great idea, building in the stops to the legs. maybe I didn't show it, but I did used dome nuts.
Take care,
Carl

As always Carl, great project. I made one this weekend, turned out good, but of course not as nice as yours. LOL One thing though, what size bit did you use for all the holes? I think I may have gone a too small on the bit.

Carl Jacobson

cwo2mustang2 Thank you very much! I can't read it anymore :) but it's just over an 1/8"

Richard Bennett

8y↑2

Carl:
I cannot emphasize enough the proper dimensions of the wood. My local box store had what they called 1 inch cedar but was actually 3/4 inch thickness. (note to self-check before buying.) I was anxious so I bought it. After following all the steps I sat in it in my shop. I broke the chair and bruised my ego. There probably isn't a recommended max weight rating but at almost 250 lbs, I really should have shopped for 5/4 or true 1 inch material. I am pondering on how much effort it will take to sit higher off the ground. I may just remake the broken 40" pieces.

Carl Jacobson

+Richard Bennett Right?! just isn't what it used to be! Maybe make the front legs a littler thicker too.

Ronald Chick

I am impressed. Your videography was superb I love you projects. Thanks

Carl Jacobson

Ronald Chick Thank you very much Ronald!

violetgrowers

Great work Carl, very inspirational to a noob wood worker like me. Do you have printable plans for the legs on this so i can get the smooth lines right?

Carl Jacobson

Thank you, sorry I don't have printable plans.

gghhhist

Hi, Carl. Great and elegant project.
Two questions.
What is the diameter of #8 threaded rod?
And why didn't you apply finish before assemly (there's no glue used)? Wouldn't it be much easier to do?
Thanks for sharing.

Carl Jacobson

+gghhhist Thank you so much!
I believe it's 1/8" This was my first one, and I wanted to make sure it went together well.

Phil B

Hey Carl - great vid - and now subscribed! And I have the wood bug! I have made one chair - but need to make a bigger one. Can I simply add on a few inches to the lengths of each of the assembly pieces to achieve this and get the same look / functionality? Many thanks and great vids! Phil (From UK)

Carl Jacobson

Thank you very much Phil! Yes just add a few inches to make them bigger.
Take care,
Carl

r crews

very nice. ill have to make a couple of those for the pool deck.great job

Carl Jacobson

r crews Thank you so much!

Alex Murfey

Very nice! I am in the process of making one from your plans on instructables. Would you recommend any type of finish on the threaded rod to prevent it from rusting? I found stainless nuts and washers, but the rod is only zinc coated .

Carl Jacobson

+Alex Murfey Thank you Alex,
You could paint them with an outdoor paint. I just put wax on the next few I made, but you got a great point.

Morgan Walser

These look far more functional and comfortable than adirondack chairs which most people some to love. I'm going to have to try and make one, and if I really like it, which I suspect that I will, then I'll probably have to make at least 5 more.

Carl Jacobson

Morgan Walser They really are comfortable, and easy to make.

Morgan Walser

Carl Jacobson What is the length and diameter of the threaded rods which you use to hold everything together? That information is never mentioned. It would be useful to know how much is needed to buy.

Quick Question. Do you have a materials list for the wood by chance? I was wanting to build one of these, but didn't know how much lumber to buy.

Carl Jacobson

Hi Steve, I did a Instructables on this project with a cut list that might help. http://www.instructables.com/id/Folding-Cedar-Lawn-Chair/

I make these myself they're easy one difference was I drilled a counter sink hole deep enough for the nut to be recessed in so you don't get caught by the bolt.
