This project is from several years ago. My dad picked up a set of viking / bog chairs decades ago and over the years all but 1 of them were lost, broken, or loaned and not returned. I made some copies out of cedar for him to replace all the lost ones. Original is on the right.

Freshly stained. I think I used Pittsburgh Cedar Naturaltone deck stain from Menards.

I kept 2 chairs for myself - the best and the worst. This is how the latter looked after 4 years out in the elements. I think it had just been powerwashed before I took this picture in preparation of being restained.

This is the guide I made to cut the tails out with a router.

    Thanks! They’re not quite as convenient to move around as those foldable lawnchair things everyone uses but they’re far more comfortable.
