Abstract: This article presents information on the design and construction of an armchair. Arts & Crafts-style armchair is based on a Gustav Stickley design from the early 1900s. With its large cushioned seat, it's sure to quickly become one of the favorite spots for reading, conversation or watching TV. And, for such an impressive piece of furniture, it's surprisingly simple to build. Most chair construction involves angled joinery and shaped back legs. Cut stock for the outer leg slats to 2¾ in. wide and an inch longer than finished length. It's important that the bevels be accurate, so make test cuts on scrap stock first. Next, rip and crosscut the filler strips, leaving the pieces an inch longer than finished dimension. Spread glue on the mating surfaces for the first leg and assemble the slats around the center strip. Rip and crosscut 4/4 stock for the front, back and side rails to specified dimension, and use 12/4 stock to make blanks for the curved back rails.
