Country chairs made of wood: Kentucky and a chaise longue chair. DIY assembly drawings and videos
Outdoor furniture can be purchased in shops and from wood furniture manufacturers. But there are rare, but at the same time, simple, convenient and aesthetic products that you can make yourself for a holiday in the country. I gave earlier descriptions, videos and assembly drawings of these products:
- Bench-transformer
- Country swing
- Country benches made of wood and concrete
In this part, let's move on to the chairs:
Country Folding Chair Kentucky
A great option for a country chair. It is made of bars that are fastened together, pulled together with a rope or threaded rod. On the internet it is called the Kentucky Chair. The design came from the English-speaking Internet. This is a convertible chair, i.e. folds up.
Schemes, drawing and cost for accessories. You can keep within 1 thousand. rub. For this price, you can only buy a camping lounge chair made of pipe and fabric. The assembly process is simple: we cut the bars to size, drill holes, process them (grinding). Can be immediately coated with wood impregnation. I do not recommend varnish - sooner or later, in open air (humidity and temperature drop), the varnish will crack from constantly forming cracks in the tree.
The moment the chair is assembled, the finished view and the folded view. Washers should be put on the studs between the bars to reduce friction when folding. The chair can be removed for the winter and it won't take long. The most important thing is that it has an exclusive, rare look. In Russia, the design is not common.

Chairs can be taken with you for outdoor recreation (of course, if the trunk allows). With a stitched headrest, it will be even more comfortable to sit in it.
The following product that can be easily made for a summer cottage:
Wooden chaise lounge
One of the easiest options for making yourself comfortable during your vacation. To make a chair, you need a few bars (no knots) and a strong fabric.
Drawing and diagrams with dimensions for manufacturing. Minimum of elements. The main thing is their reliable fastening, so that the connections do not stagger.
A modernized version of the chaise lounge. The fabric can be replaced with knitted wood planks or planks. The ropes from the bottom to the bars can be fixed with self-tapping screws and washers - you get a wooden but flexible base. But it is even better to drill holes in the bars (three rows) and thread the ropes through them. Replace the transverse bars with studs with a diameter of 1.5 cm (nuts + washers) - otherwise they may bend under the weight of the seated person. Limit the fixation of the folding angle with a rope on the legs. Cover the product with wood impregnation.
