    Default Chair Ideas?

    I'd like to try my hand at building some chairs for the kitchen table, but I've never made a chair before. Anyone have a good book or website or some reference to get me started? Thanks.

    9Fingers,

    Chairmaking and Design by Jeff Miller is a good book. It is out of print now, but your library should be able to get hold of a copy.

    Or you could make my Z-chair, see http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ad.php?t=21837 . The dimensions of the parts are given in this thread: http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ad.php?t=23053 .
