I built these Adirondack chairs from plans in Norm Abram’s Classics from The New Yankee Workshop book about 25 years ago. They’ve been out in the #pittsburgh weather all those years and needed a tuneup. A little sanding and screw tightening and they’re good as new plus a little patina. The redwood from Brookside lumber has held up pretty well all these years.

"Let's take a moment to talk about shop safety. Be sure to read, understand, and follow all of the safety rules that come with your power tools. And, remember, there is no more important rule than to wear these ::taps:: safety glasses."

is the emotional equivalent of

“Anything we don't like, we'll turn it into a happy little tree or something; we don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents.”

I will not entertain counterarguments at this time. 🙂

Looks like Norm Abram has made a short vid with Russ on The New Yankee Workshop YouTube channel. The main thrust was to let us know that measured drawings are available in a downloadable PDF format from newyankee.com (for a fee, of course) youtube.com/watch?v=puqSgmRLi3
