Hi all,

Anyone know where I can purchase/rent/borrow/otherwise acquire (preferably for free) plans or drawings for a outdoor chaise lounge? These are the long outdoor chairs with the adjustable backrest.

Some have two sections; one long section where your bum and legs sit, and a reclining backrest, others have three sections and they fold into a easily-storable package for winter. I don't mind either model, I have a 12x6m shed, so I'm not short on storage space :cool:

My parents have got a couple which were thrown together on the job by my dad, but I was hoping for something a bit more ...umm don't know the right term, but it means they don't look like they've been thrown together on the fly :D

I have looked through the books at Bunnings and local bookshops and in the city. One of the small books I bought on another subject (Tiling) was part of a 'Better Homes and Gardens' series. One of the other books in the set is 'Outdoor Furniture', but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Thanks in advance.

By chance I came across the following link (with full free plans) in my own search for a chaise lounge to build (I want to do one involving bent wood).

Check out Arbortech.com.au and search through their plans, and although not a 'woodworkers'? I think it looks stunning also plan to make it myself SOON ?
