thepopela Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Been enjoying making these chairs lately, nice project for a beginner, couldn't use my scroll saw though as the boards are too thick and long to fit so cut the skull with a jig saw. lawson56, Dave Monk, banderson and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers fella, no i don't biscuit joint them, i glue and screw the Upper and lowers together then clamp and glue the boards together. Seems very solid. Good thinking though i may biscuit joint them in the future for further strength. blights69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
