My first pallet chair

I wanted to make a couple chairs for the outdoor firepit and I did not want to spend any money.  This is my first one.

 

I went with an Adirondack styled chair.  You may notice the free floating armrests.  I wanted to use the stud pieces of the pallets for armrests and they weren’t quite long enough.  What I ended up doing was use a few metal brackets I had to secure them to the front posts.

 

This could have turned out a lot better but I didn’t want to spend much time on it.  Dollar wise, I am just out the cost of screws and metal brackets, which I already had.

That’s a sweet looking chair man! I can already picture myself sitting down in my yard, grill going, football game and beer going as well.

Love it man, great way to save some money as well, I hear that style chair can cost a few bucks.
