There may be no outdoor chair more classic and familiar than the one that hails from upstate New York. With its generous proportions
and laid-back angles, the Adirondack chair is all about taking it easy. Its sturdy yet straightforward construction makes it a great project for
intermediate and advanced woodworkers and even "seasoned" beginners looking to step up their skills in areas such as making and using
templates and working with a router. And after you build it, you will learn more about applying and using finishes to protect the wood and
keep it looking beautiful.
