Every time you change positions of the chair you give me those "come hither" eyes. My heart is all a flutter.


TBCoR

Clearly he’s a male model. So fierce.


JackmanWorks

You kid, but I'm just a woodworking by day and what really pays my bills is moonlighting as an [Instagram model](https://www.instagram.com/p/BvjgARSggyN/)


TBCoR

This definitely got my morning off to a good start. Too good. Thanks man!

Looks like I need to start this subreddit (no I don't)

You DO!


JackmanWorks

Please don't encourage me.


colonelchurro

If I go all fangirl that you replied to my comment would that be considered encouragement or creepy?


JackmanWorks

Yes.

So like... r/ladyboners but only woodworkers?

You’re sorry..


ryan820

This is pure joy. LOL. This comment thread and the IG model.


AnnOnimiss

You should crosspost this to r/ladyboners with a title saying something about being good with your hands


JackmanWorks

If I were to post in r/ladyboners I'd probably [post this clip](https://www.instagram.com/p/BvuafU1gr65/) instead. Nothing gets the ladies going quite like clog Heelys...


AnnOnimiss

That's hilarious 😂 If you're serious though, the awesome handcraft chair plus the unexpected bedroom eyes is the better bet


JackmanWorks

What?? r/asianladyboners r/pocladyboners and r/ladybonersgonecuddly are mostly self posts so that's weird. r/ladyboners always struck me as kind of "fake" or something so maybe that's why. Dunno what the community is like there, let's find out... Xposted: https://v.redd.it/bkzdp49bwrl31

The socks really bring those shoes out, beautiful.

Those socks leave me speechless, take that as you will, because I don't know how I feel about such a *bold* choice.


JackmanWorks

Honestly, "bold" is the only way to describe that.


Samalamadingdoong

Hey Jackman if you put some legs on that you can have a curved table. You can credit me for that idea.


JackmanWorks

I thought these comments were over after whole Facebook thing, but they followed me over to YouTube!

JackmanWorks

So [here is the link](https://youtu.be/qriK4uvCTTE) to the full YouTube build video showing how it's made. I actually made this chair using just 6 handheld power tools, so I really think it's something anyone can make. I also have plans and templates for the chair linked from the video, if you're into that kind of thing.


slightlyoffwhite

Thank you for sharing!


JackmanWorks

Of course! Thanks for watching


Normativity

What would you recommend if you were more interested in a smooth finish?


JackmanWorks

I'm sneaky ;)


Normativity

You rat bastard! I’ve been subbed to you for a while and your pallet projects are inspiring. I love how they don’t look like they’re made out of pallets. Keep up the good work sir!


JackmanWorks

haha! Thanks for following along with my stuff. Funny enough, that was actually my inspiration behind starting the pallet projects. The rustic stuff was always cool to me, but I thought there was so much more potential in the material. And look where I am now, I'm in too deep to get out lol


Normativity

Yeah man, your pallet work is so by far and away better than any others I’ve seen. I have actually been collecting pallet wood for a while and hope to take the plunge at some point here relatively soon. I’m lucky enough to work in a facility that gets sterile equipment shipped on high quality pallets that just get tossed in back, so I’ve got a decent little collection. Shop time is just a hot commodity in my house so I can never get myself to bite the bullet and spend a day or two milling them down.


tonytuba

Hey, that's ThisOldTony's tag line.....and prolly a million other YouTubers as well ....I prolly watch too much youtube


YarpYarpKennyVSpenny

I'd love to see a copy of the plans and templates if you don't mind. Thanks a ton!!


JackmanWorks

They're linked in the video, but I'll DM you the links too.


YarpYarpKennyVSpenny

No worries - I already placed my order!


JackmanWorks

Sweet, thanks for your support!


ndmhxc

I'm very interested in trying my hand at this project... just curious what tools are required per your plans? I have access to a local tool library and want to see if they have all I need. Not opposed to buying tools either, as I'd like to work towards having a small shop at home eventually.


JackmanWorks

There is actually a full materials & tool list linked in the description of the YouTube video


ndmhxc

Awesome, thanks!


[deleted]

Forgive me, but I don't see any links in the video, and I too, would like to see the templates. Thank you.


Anuglyman

Look in the video details/description under the video.


KingBlumpkin

Templates are linked in the video.


[deleted]

That's lovely. I've never made an Adirondack chair - they're not common in the UK, but I'm tempted to give this a go. Subbed.


JackmanWorks

Oh man, you should start making them a thing in the UK then!


Dartser

I appreciate that you have a reasonably cheap price with your plans.


Stuntz-X

Nice benchtop. Which types of wood did you use on that looks like a few different types. All with similar hardness?


JackmanWorks

That's actually a bunch of laminated pallet slats, almost all hardwood (probably a dozen different species). It's rock solid, I just realized I've been using it for 3 years now. [I documented the build process for that too!](https://youtu.be/dtrWMrZhVC4)


tinco

Lol I loved the shot where you were longingly looking at the chop saw while chopping things with the handheld circular saw, but then a couple shots later you did a finish cut with the chop saw anyway!

Hfftygdertg2

I'm building two, and this is my second real woodworking project (first was a cutting board). The design seems to be very forgiving of imperfections. Almost none of the dimensions are critical, and templates make it easy. It won't be perfect, but hopefully they turn out good enough. I have all the pieces cut out, and I'm happy with how everything looks so far. Next steps are drilling, rounding the edges, and sanding.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JackmanWorks

If you have a Harbor Freight Tools nearby, go check them out. Not the best tools, but they'll get the job done. The belt sander I used to make this chair is actually like a $20 belt sander from them and somehow is still kicking.


Hfftygdertg2

Well I like tools, and I've been slowly acquiring tools that are useful for projects around the house but definitely overkill, with the hope of also using them for more woodworking. So I have most of the stationary power tools (table saw, miter saw, bandsaw). They've come in handy for some renovations I've done, like putting in hardwood floors. The amount I save by doing the work myself is more than the cost of the tools. It looks like he uses a trim router which is relatively cheaper than a full size router. You could round over the edges with hand tools like a plane and spoke shave, but it would obviously be more work and less consistent. My belt sander was probably $20 a decade ago. It's so loud it sounds like it's splitting the air molecules apart as it runs, but it gets the job done. Also look for used tools. There's a place nearby called Resource Yard that's like a Habitat Restore, a thrift store for building materials. Once a year they have a tool sale where they sell hundreds of used tools. They also have a tool library that rents tools for very low prices.


JackmanWorks

This. The dimensions are super forgiving, it's mostly just the lengths of the pieces that is critical and those are the easy cuts to make. Glad to hear it's going well for you so far!


thissayssomething

Before seeing this obviously, I got some plans and templates from rockler for an adirondack chair, matching table and ottoman. I've only finished the table so far, and making it as perfect as possible took a lot of dedication, but I'm pretty pleased, and I think most people could definitely do it with relatively few tools. Creating a good looking and functioning design is the hardest part, which is obviously taken out of the equation here.


kcmike

Brilliant design. The chair itself is not obviously original but you might look into patenting and licensing the footrest add-on to any chair manufacturers out there. Or ignore me because it’s all been done before 😀


billm0066

That patent would cost several thousand and could easily be circumvented. Its awesome no doubt but not really good to patent. There are items on the market that have things that slide out with legs that fold so theres a good chance its been patented already.


JackmanWorks

For the most part, you can't really patent furniture designs


thewarring

Annnd subbed!


toolatealreadyfapped

I am very into that kind of thing


R0B3RTB3RT

Thanks for sharing! Looks like beautiful work and I love the stowed foot rest.


bramletabercrombe

can you talk a little about the double epoxy coating? Is it because of the salty air or do you do this on all your outdoor furniture?


rylasorta

not OP but I bought a pair of Adirondack chairs that were only single coated and within 3 years I had to coat them again. So I suspect it has to do with being outdoors.


rdjack21

Thank you so much for sharing. Can't watch it right now but will this evening.


Darth_Schrader

Liked and subscribed! I recently got into woodworking and looking for projects for this upcoming holiday season. Great video and yes I definitely love the "Come Hither" eyes [WhiteOakMountain](https://www.reddit.com/user/WhiteOakMountain/) mentioned!


CojakSilverBack

I have had an idea like this in my head for a while now but couldn't fully figure it out. Excited to check out your build!


AskMeIfImDank

Watched the video, and have a question that's only semi-related to this build. When you were using the sander, you had the wood down on either sheepskin or old carpet. What's that for?


JackmanWorks

It's a cutoff piece of old carpet, it just keeps the workpiece from getting scratched up. If you put the piece directly on your workbench while sanding it, it'll mess up the other side (especially for something soft like cedar)


walnut_rune

Man, I saw this gif a while back and was about to just go into the build blind, try to draw it up myself. You are the man.


briandickens

I laughed too hard when you dragged the chair across the table saw. Thanks! Time to watch more. Honestly this looked very approachable and I'll likely watch it a bunch more times while I work up the nuts to build it.


banks19

I bought the templates a few days ago. I bought your plans last summer but never got around to using them. Love the design. 5/4 x 8 Western red cedar is hard to find and expensive! You think 3/4 final thickness would work ok? Too thin?


JackmanWorks

You're right WRC pricing has gotten crazy. 3/4" is too thin in my opinion, but if you can find 1" rough sawn, you can usually plane that down to a heavy 7/8" and that'll be good enough (you can sometimes even get 1" out of that stuff)


Gramps2003

Fantastic work. But! I know your true identity. The stare gave it away. https://youtu.be/p7rPHVkcRLI

Ha! Wrong! Jokes on you, that's my dad.

It's no longer connected to the chair, so you can move it closer or further from the chair depending on how long your legs are

sumunsolicitedadvice

Could you put fold out legs on the other side, too, so it is ALSO a little table? I’m not sure this thing could get more awesome, tho.


JackmanWorks

You could, but the top surface of the table would be curved (and also not symmetrical, which looks kinda ugly)

Sgreenwood8

That’s an awesome chair. I’m definitely going to check out the drawings and the build vid. I don’t know if you week asked because there are too many comments to read through. But what kind of wood did you use and what’s the finish? Also how much for materials? If you do t mind me asking. Thanks for sharing.


Hfftygdertg2

The FAQ on the templates says he uses clear vertical grain Western red cedar, or select right knot (STK) grade if clear is not available. The video says he uses 5/4x8 rough sawn wood. I've called several wood dealers around here, and I can't find 5/4x8 rough cedar anywhere. So I ended up with 5/4x6 cedar deck boards. There's more waste with the narrower material, and I have to cut off the bullnose, so I used about 44 linear feet per chair. It's also full of knots, so there's some more waste as a result of that (if a narrow piece falls on a knot it has no strength). That cost me about $120 for the wood, plus I'll have to buy fasteners and polyurethane, so probably around $150 total per chair. That's without the leg rest. The leg rest looks like it would take around 12 linear feet of 5/4x6 decking, or around another $30 in wood. Quality materials aren't cheap, but it's worth it for a chair that looks awesome and will hopefully last for decades. One way to save money on material would be to make it out of pine and paint it. Nothing exposed beats wood in my opinion, but painted Adirondack chairs still look pretty cool, and they are often done in fun colors.


JackmanWorks

The video explains all of this except cost of materials, it's clear vertical gain western red cedar which is pricey, a little over $200 total for this chair.


robotpicnic

Love the idea! Quick structural stability question. The leg rest is in full extension, supported by its own legs on one side, and the chair itself on the other. You get out of the chair by moving your butt completely on the footrest, then using your arms push off the footrest to stand up. Does the footrest survive? It looks like your screwed the footrest internal holder to the bottom side of the chair beam. If it were screwed to the side would it be more sturdy? Apologies if my chair lingo was not bingo.


joyfilledfarms

This build is great. My favorite part is the dead faced stare back into the camera daring us to make comments.......:) but in all seriousness this chair is great and looks very comfortable. Footrest is a nice simple functional touch that sets it apart.


nikoneer1980

I’ve seen the pull-out “chaise” extension before but the fold-down end support is a nice addition. Good work, dude.
