Done with the demolition phase as I had cut off everything that isn't needed. Cut a plywood platform and painted it black Made a PVC chair frame and attached it to the platform with pipe flanges. The flanges have set screws so I can remove the chair for transport or storage. Notched the pipes and bolted together, added some air dry foam putty bamboo nodes. Added plywood seat and seat back Painted the bamboo pipes, lashed them together with some natural rope, burned the plywood seat parts. Phineas says it's quite comfy! Back. Do not scan the QR code if you have delicate sensibilities, Phineas is not known for his decorum LOL The QR code leads here [ Edited by MadDogMike on 2025-12-12 14:27:01 ]
