Every fisherman knows perfectly well how important it is to feel comfort and harmony in the process of his favorite activity. That is why the quality arrangement of the fishing spot.

Many lovers of bait fishing are sensitive to the issue of organizing space in their “fishing” place, so choosing a chair for fishing is a very important issue.

Since fishermen spend most of their time sitting, it is important that the chair is:

• Made of good material;
• Physiologically and anatomically correct shape;
• Fixed securely on the ground;
• Was comfortable for the back and spine;
• It was made of materials suitable for the design of a fisherman's seat;
• It had a strong and wear-resistant base.

Therefore, if you want to build a fishing chair with your own hands, you need to carefully prepare for this issue and choose only the best materials.

It’s not very difficult to make fishing chairs with your own hands, you just need to think about it first:

• What materials will be used to construct this fishing accessory?
• The house has everything you need or you need to purchase the missing elements;
• Chair design;
• Find a drawing suitable for the product;
• Consider the color schemes for the fisherman's seat;
• Allocate time so that before the next time you go “hunting” for fish, everything is ready for a quality and safe pastime.

Quality and structure of the fishing chair

Of course, the quality of the product directly depends on what materials are chosen to create a handmade fishing chair. It is best to give preference to good and durable elements for arranging the seat.

The quality of the stool depends on:

• How strong is the design chosen to create the frame, the basis for the product;
• What fasteners are chosen to connect the parts of the chair;
• What finishing material is chosen;
• Is the design of the chair chosen correctly?
• Is the seat carefully thought out based on the weight category of the fisherman?

Requirements for fishing chairs

In order for a fishing chair to truly become a real salvation for a fisherman who spends hours on the shore of a pond, the following factors must be taken into account when considering the design of this accessory:

• Strength. Due to the fact that the fishing spot is sometimes winding and uneven, and the weight of the fisherman can be very different, the strength of the structure is the key to safety. Naturally, the greater the weight of the person who enjoys eating his own catch, the harder and more reliable should be the elements from which the chair will be assembled in the future. The fastening parts must also be of high quality, because it depends on them how long the seat created by yourself will last.
• Sustainability. The design of the chair must be thought out in such a way that it can be securely installed even on uneven and mountainous surfaces. If the chair is unstable, then it will not be used for its intended purpose for very long and after several fishing trips it will simply break, reducing all the efforts of the fisherman to zero. To avoid this, it is better to include elements such as springs, stretchable fasteners, and fabric membranes made of durable and elastic material into the overall design.
• Light weight of the product. When going through household elements from which a fishing chair will be constructed in the future, you should try to choose lighter parts. Of course, the lightness of the design should not be at the expense of strength, but when carrying the product to a productive fishing spot, it is better that it does not weigh much. This is more comfortable and safer for the spine, considering that in addition to the chair, the fisherman will also carry a fishing rod or spinning rod, tackle and bait, and on the way back he will also have a catch in addition.
• Comfortable sizes. To ensure that the chair can easily fit into a fishing backpack, you need to take care of its comfortable dimensions. This is quite simple to achieve; you need to correctly draw up a diagram taking into account the dimensions of the fisherman and try to make the small chair as small as possible.
• Affordable design. Of course, with high experience and skills, you can build an abstruse and complex chair structure. But it would be safer and faster to give preference to the lightest possible design, taking into account the elements available for this.

The design of a fishing chair can be:

• Whole. This is practical from the point of view of product reliability. But it is inconvenient when carrying and transporting. However, if this is a fishing chair, for example, in a country house, and the pond is located two steps away from the site, then you can easily rely on the one-piece design of the fishing chair.
• Folding. This option is used more often. It’s not difficult to make it yourself, and it’s convenient to carry. Due to its compactness when folded, the folding chair can even fit into a backpack.

Homemade fishing chair designs

Each fisherman can come up with the design of a fishing chair for a homemade product.

The main options are:

• Folding chairs on three legs. To make them, you will need aluminum or a substitute for this material, supports, the fabric chosen for the covering, and fasteners for connecting the individual parts. This chair does not have a backrest, which is not always convenient. But thanks to the correct equipment of the legs, it can be securely installed on a flat surface. If fishing usually takes place in winding, mountainous and uneven areas, then it is better to choose another chair to build with your own hands.
• Folding chairs with two intersecting legs. This chair is also made from aluminum or a base that replaces this material. To create the correct shape, you need a device that is aimed at bending metal structures. These chairs fit perfectly on any surface, even uneven. The most important thing is to choose durable fabric for the covering and high quality fasteners.
• Folding chairs with vertical supports and backrest. Of course, such a seat is as comfortable as possible and suitable for a long stay. Thanks to the backrest, you can sit back comfortably and fully enjoy the fishing process. The only drawback of such a product is that its implementation and arrangement will require good experience in working with such products. An angler who does not have the skills to implement such products may encounter difficulties when arranging this type of fishing chair. An area usually used by those who like to fish with bait. It is mountainous, smooth, winding;

When choosing an option to create a chair with your own hands, you need to consider many factors:

• Angler's weight category. Of course, if a person weighs more than one hundred kilograms, then it is necessary to equip the chair with thicker and more durable structures;
• Time spent fishing. If a person goes fishing for a few hours, then any chair will do. If you plan to go to a reservoir for the purpose of catching for the whole day or night, then you need to think through the comfort of the product as much as possible;
• Season. This factor is very important. If in the summer it is possible to design a chair with low grounding, then during the winter fishing period the seat of the fisherman’s chair should be as elevated as possible above the surface of the ground or ice so that the fisherman does not catch a cold or freeze.
• Finding a body of water. If it is located close, then even heavy chair structures can be built. If the place where fishing takes place is located far from the lake, you need to pay attention to the lightness of the product.

What materials can a chair be made from?

When you go into a closet or garage, you can find a lot of accessories from which, it would seem, it is quite possible to make a high chair. What materials should you prefer when choosing elements to create a chair with your own hands?

Naturally, the durability and reliability of a fishing chair directly depends on the quality and strength of materials, so try to choose the best possible parts to create your product:

• Any aluminum structures can be used. Most often it is used because this material is easy to bend, does not corrode and is durable in its service. Most often, the base of a folding structure is constructed from this material and additional membranes and jumpers, which will help with stability and additional functions.
• Screws, bolts and tie rods will also come in handy, with the help of which all the functional and moving parts of the chair for arranging a fishing spot will be secured.
• Leather. If you find pieces of leather from old jackets or other items in your pantry or garage, do not rush to get rid of them, because they may come in handy in the process of designing a fishing chair for a fruitful catch.
• Tarpaulin. This material is ideal for reupholstery. It is this element that is often used by handymen when organizing the seating area and the backrest itself, if it is provided for in the drawing. This material is durable and will help maintain the integrity of the product.
• Rivets and other similar elements. They will help secure the seat fabric firmly and firmly. To make the product comfortable and suitable for any weight category, you can attach such parts along the entire seat and back.
• Thick threads can also be useful in the process of attaching fabric elements to the structure of a fisherman’s chair.
• Glue. Definitely needed to attach additional pieces of fabric to the seat. Glue can also be useful for fixing fixed structural elements.
• Fabric tapes. If they are elastic and at the same time durable, they can easily become supporting and holding parts of chair structures.

Depending on your imagination and the planned design of the chair for equipping the fishing spot, you can use almost any element found in the bins. Everything will come in handy here, including various pillows, metal pieces, and fastening particles from any unnecessary products.

How to catch more fish?

I have been active fishing for quite some time and have found many ways to improve the bite. And here are the most effective:

1. . Attracts fish in cold and warm water with the help of pheromones included in the composition and stimulates its appetite. It’s a pity that Rosprirodnadzor wants to impose a ban on its sale.
2. More sensitive gear. Reviews and instructions for other types of gear can be found on the pages of my website.
3. Lures using pheromones.

You can get the rest of the secrets of successful fishing for free by reading my other materials on the site.

Folding fishing chair on four legs

Chairs with four legs are popular among fishermen. It’s not difficult to make if you have at least a little skill in creating such structures yourself.

To construct the structure of this chair you will need the following elements:

1. Aluminum, metal or wooden beams of the same length;
2. PVA glue or moment, as well as mounting screws and screws;
3. Nuts for fastening moving elements;
4. A steel rod that will serve as the basis for the folding component of the structure;
5. Supports from the material selected for the manufacture of the main part of the chair;
6. A form made of metal or wood for sitting;
7. Fabric that will cover the seat and back of the product;
8. Fabric or spring elements to secure the product during installation;
9. Scissors, knife, blade for trimming excess parts;
10. Drawing paper and pencil.

In order to begin the actual construction of a seat for a fisherman, you need to prepare a workplace. It should be spacious and compact so that all parts used in production can be placed at arm's length.

• First of all, you need to collect the elements that will be folded. Namely, attach a bendable steel rod to the legs and back of the future chair.
• Then you need to connect the legs alternately using glue and fastening moving elements.
• After this, attach the square with good glue, in place of which there will be a seat for the fisherman.
• When all the glued particles have hardened, you can begin attaching the fabric to the seat. It is necessary to pull the material tightly and attach it using buttons, threads or a stapler.
• After the actions taken The only thing left to do is to come up with design ideas, if any are proposed.
• It is best if the chair is placed in the open air within 24 hours so that all elements are securely fastened and the product can be used for its intended purpose.
I caught this pike using a bite activator. No more fishing without a catch and no more looking for excuses for your bad luck! It's time to change everything!!! The best bite activator of 2018! Made in Italy...
• You need to carefully consider the design of the chair so that it is comfortable and durable;
• To create a fishing chair, you should use the highest quality elements so that the product is strong and durable;
• Be sure to take into account the fishing area in order to choose the right chair design;
• Of course, you need to take into account the weight category of the fisherman when starting to create a drawing for creating a chair with your own hands;
• Before going fishing, check the strength of the chair; you can put something heavy on top, close to the weight of the fishing enthusiast;
• It is best to choose a color scheme that matches the natural environment. So that sitting on a chair does not cause unpleasant emotions and experiences.

Any person who has spent a long time winter fishing inevitably begins to think about how to create at least minimal comfort for himself. After all, the important difference between winter fishing is precisely that the fisherman does not need to get up from his seat either when fishing for fish or when changing the bait on the hook.

If you have the right equipment, the only thing left for an ice fisherman to do is set up his workplace well. All elements of equipment used for fishing should be located literally at arm's length from a seated person. This will save him from having to get up often, exposing himself to the cold wind and being distracted from the process of fishing.

The main element of the arrangement is the feeder chair. After all, winter fishing is mainly a passive activity - a person has to sit in one position for a long time. At the same time, the load on the back increases, especially on its lumbar region.

Industrial options for feeder fishing chairs

Important accessories for feeder fishing should be at hand: a bucket with bags of dry and home-prepared bait, a box with bait.Not all fishermen are willing to lay out their catch right on the ice at their feet.

Some people, having removed the fish from the hook, immediately put it in a small plastic container or bag. To do this, the container must also be placed near the seat itself, so that the necessary manipulations with the catch can be performed without getting up.

A seat with a folding attachment table and a body kit necessary for winter fishing makes any handling of fish, hook and bait convenient, minimizes time and effort for all auxiliary procedures, making it possible to concentrate only on the main thing - fishing. Even if something suddenly appears in the fisherman’s field of vision, he will not ignore it, while continuing to fish.

A more reliable option for storing individual accessories is in special pockets made in the seat upholstery. This is guaranteed to prevent a sudden gust of wind from blowing away the bait or bait.

In addition, putting all the necessary accessories into the seat pockets and removing all the necessary accessories from there is much more convenient than constantly bending low when everything is laid out on the ice. You can choose any other design of niches and pockets for accessories in the chair, taking into account your individual priorities.

Characteristics of the chair

The features of any element of a winter fisherman's equipment are akin to a traveler's equipment - in size it must be designed to be carried in a backpack or suitcase, quickly disassembled and folded, lightweight, and easy to use.

It would not be at all superfluous if its covering at least partially protects the rider from the cold winter wind - not every fisherman pitches a tent over the hole.

The feeder fisherman's chair should:

• be stable on ice;
• sit securely even on uneven surfaces;
• Additionally, have support for the back, since it is this part of the body that becomes numb when sitting for a long time over the hole in a monotonous position.

If the backrest reclines, the upper body support allows the person to assume a comfortable waddle position. A backrest-supported seat will certainly provide the fisherman with the opportunity to get the pleasure for which he leaves the cozy house in winter in any weather. It wouldn’t be out of place to mention your health, which, while fishing without minimal amenities, can cause damage, albeit small.

DIY feeder chair. Part 1

Having seen it one day at a neighbor's place on the ice, an ice fishing enthusiast becomes eager to have his own comfortable feeder chair. But the cost of even the simplest seats for winter fishing in ruble terms is now so substantial (from 7,000 rubles without body kit!) that if a person does not have a significant amount of free money, it is impossible to justify the purchase by any catches or desire for convenience.

Tools in your hands

It is quite possible to get a comfortable and reliable seat for feeder fishing without breaking another hole in the family budget - you can make it yourself at home. To perform this work, no special skills of a locksmith or a master of sewing on a sewing machine are required.

Everything can be done by a person with average abilities to design and make something; all he needs to do is be determined and stubborn.

After the design of the feeder chair has been thought out, the necessary sketches and outlines have been made, it is necessary to calculate the amount of materials.

If the dimensions of the product are approximately one and a half meters in height and half a meter in width, then you will need materials that can partly be bought in a store, and partly found at home.

It is difficult to choose a more suitable material for the frame of a future chair than a profile pipe. The main advantages of this material:

• cheapness;
• high strength;
• weldability;
• ease of machining.

Necessary materials

Materials from which most homemade feeder chairs of simple designs are made:

• pieces of plywood 8 mm thick;
• steel pipes with a diameter of 20-25 mm with walls whose thickness is not less than 1.5 mm, cutting elements from these pipes for one chair will be: 55 cm - 4 pieces, 70 cm - 2 pieces, 30 cm - 1 piece;
• pieces of fabric with foam padding for covering the seat and back: 800×400 mm - 1 piece; 700×400 mm - 1 piece;
• bolts with nuts and wings of various lengths for assembling legs, seat and back;
• furniture bolts for connecting the seat to the back;
• steel plate for thrust bearings 3 mm thick;
• staples for a construction stapler 6 mm;
• primer and dye for processing the chair frame - in the minimum amount available on the sales counter.

For the feeder, the size of the seat-chair of the universal version is almost the same - 1.5 × 0.5 m. The given quantities and sizes of elements are based on a simple version without side armrests and an additional shelf for the legs.

If the craftsman considers these elements of the chair to be useful, then he will additionally need the materials of the listed nomenclature, but in a different quantity. Drawings of do-it-yourself corrugated pipe seats can be found in abundance on fishing equipment websites.

Foldable design

One of the most successful designs is a feeder chair with insulated foam upholstery. To stick foam rubber onto plywood, you will need titanium glue, and it is more convenient to prime and paint the finished frame using spray cans. It is better to choose a matte black paint color.

An important detail is that the chair for winter fishing must be foldable, since it will constantly have to be transported, carried, moved every time you go fishing.

It is permissible to make all frame elements from a round aluminum pipe of sufficient strength, in which case the chair will be much lighter. But welding aluminum at home is problematic.

Popular search queries for video clips on the Internet are: “Do-it-yourself feeder chair”, “Make your own feeder chair”, “Chair for a winter feeder”.

DIY feeder chair. Part 2

Even when the chair is ready, it is comfortable and the fisherman has sat in it enough at home, it is too early to take it fishing. For greater convenience, you need a specific kit for winter fishing.

These are additional accessories to the seat in the form of pockets for bait and bait, stands for the rod, a folding table for a thermos with tea and manipulations with the feeder and hooks. Only when everything is complete will the chair begin to “work off” the costs of its construction.

DIY body kit

Prices for feeder chair body kit elements on sale are steep.Buying the entire body kit as a set will be no cheaper than the chair itself.

Types of body kit include:

• rod stands;
• folding table with drawers for baits and groundbaits;
• special hanging bucket for bait mixture;
• pocket for thermos.

All these elements are not so complex that a person who made a chair with his own hands would buy them in a store. With such equipment, the fishing process is simplified.

Become a mechanic

Seeing the cost of branded body kit elements, the fisherman will only strengthen his desire to continue his plumbing activities. To make your own fishing seat kit, you will need the following materials:

• aluminum tube F 25 mm long 300 cm;
• fitting elements with which plastic pipes will be attached to the frame of the chair - 6 pcs.;
• pen for drilling plastic and wood F 26 mm;
• fastening elements for pipe blanks;
• drive-in nuts for furniture fittings may be useful;
• M8 threaded bolts;
• lightweight but durable plastic box;
• plastic clips for fixing pipe blanks.

The materials listed in the list do not cost a lot of money, especially since in many homes where furniture or plumbing is often repaired, they may be in abundance. From here the spare parts of the chair are then formed in case of breakdown.

We manufacture the body kit in the following order:

1. We drill out the inner diameter of the tees to the diagonal size of the corrugated pipes of the chair legs.
2. In the body of each tee, using a soldering iron, we fix a nut into which the M8 fastening bolt will be screwed.
3. We drill holes in the legs. into which the mounting bolts will fit freely.
4. We install tees and fasten them to the pipes with bolts.
5. For each type of armchair body kit we make our own frame, which will allow you to install it on the side of the legs.
6. We attach the bait box to the legs with clips that securely compress the corrugated pipe.

Attaching body kit elements to the feeder chair

To make a mount for fishing rods, it is enough to make a side branch from any chair leg. We also make a suspension for the bucket of food - we drill holes in the bucket for the clips and securely fix it.

Additional accessories

In addition to a luxurious chair with the necessary body kit, an ice fisherman will need various additional equipment. The main ones can be listed:

• drill for drilling holes;
• a sieve for scooping out ice crumbs from the holes;
• grip for large fish.

In different conditions of each specific fishing, the set of additional devices is different, and only the fisherman knows what he will need that day on a given body of water. It is convenient to transport all devices in a special box, which is convenient to carry along with the chair and gear.

Do-it-yourself bait table for feeder fishing

You need to take special care of the bait table, because it can not only make fishing easier, but also be very useful when relaxing outdoors. You can place bait, accessories, flavors, bait, and other equipment on it.

When all this is at hand, auxiliary time is reduced, fishing opportunities and efficiency increase. It does not necessarily have to be easily and quickly attached to the feeder chair; a separate attachment table is quite suitable on ice.

Types of homemade bait tables for feeder fishing:

• according to frame material: metal or PVC;
• according to the material of the tabletop: plastic or laminated plywood;
• according to design features: non-separable tables or a table with removable legs.

It is better to take a pipe and use it to make a frame for attaching the tray. The tray is attached to the frame with self-tapping screws, and the legs of the required length are welded or soldered.

A shelf table is more suitable for a feeder. If each tray is mounted on its own frame with short legs, then it will be possible to place the sections one on top of the other and in this way build a table of the required size and capacity.

A convenient plastic table with leg extensions, made from plumbing pipe elements, is convenient. In addition to being light and easy to transport, such a feeding table is easy to clean from frozen food residues, wash, and store on a shelf in the home utility room. But the table can also be folding, with one tray.

Fishing is one of the popular male pastimes. Have a nice time on the shore of a pond. Experienced fishermen understand that comfortable fishing requires a comfortable place to sit. Sitting on logs is uncomfortable, and dragging a bulky chair behind you is also not an option. The ideal solution to this issue would be a folding chair with a backrest, which is compact when folded, and when used will help not put strain on your back, which quickly gets tired from sitting for a long time.

The height of the chair can be 350 mm - 450 mm.

Store-bought options are not always suitable, since often these products are either not reliable or are very expensive. Therefore, the most rational solution is to make a folding chair for fishing with your own hands. A homemade chair will not only help you save money, but will also allow your imagination to run wild and make a good product from quality material. The advantages of such a chair are its compactness, stability, ease of transportation and simple manufacturing.

To make a folding chair, you can use any type of wood; birch will give it strength.

The most common options for chairs of this type are options with and without backrest.

1. A stool without a back is simpler to make and less expensive in terms of material, however, the first option is much more convenient to use. The back of the chair can be made of wood, that is, the product will be of one-piece construction, or the seat and back are made of durable fabric that is stretched over the base frame.
2. You can also divide chairs according to the type of legs - they can be straight, crossed or solid. The material for the chair can be metal, plastic or wood. Making metal or plastic chairs will require special tools and skills, so making them yourself can be quite difficult.
3. The option with a wooden chair is the simplest, thanks to the wide range of materials, their affordable price and the ease of use of wood.

At first glance, the drawing of this object rather resembles a Rubik's cube, and it is not at all clear how one can build something following it.

Remember that the middle bars are placed in the same way as the outer, wide ones.

Materials and tools

Based on the fact that the option with wooden materials is the simplest and most budget-friendly, we will choose it. The basis of the chair will be wooden blocks, the dimensions of which will depend on the size of the particular chair. They will serve as legs and a supporting part for the back.

When starting assembly, first of all it is necessary to place the axle bolts on the legs of the chair, and the axle should not be located in the middle of the legs, but closer to their top, otherwise the chair will be high and will not be particularly stable.

Without getting hung up on thoughts, let's move on to practical actions.

The materials for the seat and the most supporting part for the person’s back can be wooden slats or thick fabric, such as tarpaulin. You need to choose a quality tree, it is advisable to opt for hard wood (birch, oak and others), since the service life of the product will depend on this. To connect the parts into a single structure, you will need fasteners, in our case these are bolts, nuts and washers for movable joints and wood screws for fixed ones.

When assembling, do not forget that the heads of the nuts and bolts must be recessed flush.

A folding chair is a very useful household device.

Of the tools to perform this work, a standard carpenter’s set, which is at the disposal of almost every owner at home, is sufficient:

• drill;
• screwdriver or set of screwdrivers;
• hacksaw for wood and metal;
• wrenches, knife or scissors if you have to work with fabric;
• file and sandpaper for subsequent removal of surface defects.

A folding chair is an ideal option for lovers of fishing and outdoor recreation.

The described product is made without a handle, however, this gap can be easily eliminated by installing portable handles between the inner legs.

Without much difficulty, you can make such a chair with your own hands, even without being a carpenter.

Procedure

The process of making a chair is quite simple, and even a person without professional skills in this matter can handle it.

1. It is necessary to assemble the seat by attaching the transverse slats to the base bars.
2. Next comes the assembly of the frame, consisting of two bars, on top of which the back slats are mounted, in the middle - a crossbar for the seat (at the bottom the frame will serve as the front legs of the product).
3. The rear legs are equipped with two movable crossbars at the top and bottom.
4. The upper crossbar is connected to the back, the lower - to the main frame by bolted connections.
5. The seat is also attached to the middle frame using bolts. The result is a chair that, when lifted, folds into a compact structure that does not take up much space and is light in weight.
6. When working with fabrics or leather for the seat and back, a pre-measured and sewn cover is placed on the slats during the assembly process instead of the wooden cross pieces.

A folding chair is a very useful household device.

This piece of furniture is also indispensable in the kitchen and country house, since when folded it is quite compact and does not take up much space.

After the chair is ready, it is necessary to carry out the finishing work. First, you should get rid of all roughness and unnecessary protrusions. The bolts are sunk into the base of the wood, a file and sandpaper eliminate defects, varnish will add smoothness and emphasize the natural color of the wood, which in itself will be beautiful. However, if your imagination requires more beauty, you can use the skills of burning and wood carving, or give the product a more interesting shape at the design stage.

All you need is woodworking equipment, which is available in almost every garage or workshop of a carpentry enthusiast, basic woodworking skills and, most importantly, a desire to craft.

It can be used in the garage, where there is always not enough space, taken to nature and simply, if necessary, used in the apartment.

By asking yourself how to make a fishing chair with your own hands, you can get a wonderful product that will faithfully serve for a long time. At the same time, you can save a lot of money and let your imagination run wild, creating a truly unique original work.

If necessary, it is possible to change the height of the assembled chair; to do this, between the middle bars of the seat it is enough to insert another bar with a cross-section of approximately 20x20 mm.

To make a folding chair, you can use any type of wood; birch will give it strength, but pine will significantly lighten the structure, but its joints are not durable and can quickly become loose.

However, the finished chair suggests a slightly different thought - everything ingenious is simple.

VIDEO: DIY folding chair. Homemade folding chair

A fisherman's chair is a necessary thing. With some fishing methods you can’t do without it. You can buy it in a store or make it yourself.

Choosing a chair

It’s not difficult to choose a quality model in a fishing store. The seller will tell you about all the advantages and disadvantages of a particular model.

   Professional models are equipped with legs with wide stops. The main advantage is the adjustable height of the legs. Crossed legs provide proper comfort. Tube feet are the cheapest and most uncomfortable. The main disadvantage of such legs is that they are dug into the ground.

2. Strength and weight. It is important to find a balance between these indicators. Pay attention to models made of aluminum. This material is lightweight and durable.
3. Armrests. These structural elements can restrict movement.

When choosing a product, you need to pay attention to the manufacturer, warranty period, and appearance of the packaging. It is recommended to purchase products made from metal pipes.

5. After we sawed a piece of chipboard No. 2 We got one more piece. He will be No. 3.
6. Now you need to glue the edge.
7. We fold the sawn parts with the back side. We apply chipboard No. 1 to it and draw a line with a marker.

A certain part of the inhabitants, not paying attention to the fact that our client was left to sit on the floor, preferred to sit on small benches. They did not contribute to the invention of the throne. Egypt was not the ancestor of the folding stool. Such stools were carried by slaves behind their owner in case he wanted to sit somewhere along the way. It was only in the 18th century that varieties of chairs began to appear. They served as a difficult place to sit, but they were a rocking chair, a barber chair, a bedside chair, an office chair, and a conversation chair.

For the seat, you need to take a dense, not strong fabric so that it can withstand the average weight of a person. These come in both natural and non-synthetic fabrics. From the prepared piece you need to cut an isosceles triangle. Any side of this triangle should be about 28-30 cm. For convenience, a so-called strap must be sewn to one of the corners of the fabric, which will serve as a coupling element for the strap in order to carry such a chair behind your back or on the other on your shoulder.

Fastening the legs of the chair for this purpose is quite easy. For this purpose, you need to take one leg, insert a long bolt into the through hole, put a bolt-loop there, do not insert it into the other leg, and tighten it all with a nut. The 3rd leg is attached to the bolt loop. It turns out to be a typical tripod. The leg with a bolt-loop is secured with a blind nut. The tripod for the folding chair is ready.

To attach a fabric seat, the corner of the cut triangle must be attached to the legs to the end hole. Which of the three self-tapping screws can be used to screw the decorative washers into the end holes of the legs? The strap that remained on one of the corners of the seat is expected to be attached to the strap. The other part of the belt is made in the form of a small loop, which is naturally thrown over the folded legs. It’s so comfortable to personally carry a chair made without the help of others.

According to the drawing, two legs usually have a length of 91 cm, in addition two - 55 cm. Small holes for the bolt heads are drilled on the outside of the prepared legs. In these holes it is necessary to make more holes with a diameter of 5 mm. Make longitudinal grooves from the inside, the width and depth of which is 10 mm. These grooves are needed for the free movement of the iron bar when the chair is unfolded.

Birch bars that will serve as a seat, make holes for dowels at the end. This will allow you to connect the long legs for the back using a transverse ligament. The diameter of the transverse ligament does not exceed 28 mm. The dowels must be lubricated with PVA glue so that the block cannot be inserted into the right place. Then the back is strengthened using self-tapping screws.

The shorter legs are connected to the transverse ligaments by fastening with dowels. Here the support bars are attached to any wooden board at a similar distance. When connecting slats to bars with self-tapping screws, it is natural to insert spacer checkers. A metal rod must be inserted between the 5 and 6 slats of the seat.

Transverse, not vertical, cuts are made in the sidewalls in order to insert the seat into the backrest. Accordingly, lower grooves are made in the back so that they can be inserted into the two sides. You need to make two grooves in the seat that fit horizontally into the proper grooves in the side frames. The more carefully the measurements are taken, the more securely such a structure will be fastened together.

Since this product does not provide information carriers and fasteners, you will be able to assemble a folding chair in any order.
