2011 in review

January 3, 2012

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 14,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 5 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

The Modern Balcony Chair

June 18, 2011

The 2×4 chair was purposefully designed very solid and heavy. At the same time this became a downside for places that ask for a little more elegance. Enter: The skinny version of the 2×4 chair all made out of 1×4′s. It is light weight and strong!

One extra board at the bottom prevents it from flexing and keeps it light. I also played around with the angle of the back which is now simply 30 degrees and easier to cut on the miter saw. This chair only has 4 boards on the back spaced out 1/8″ which makes the chair feel lighter.

This small chair lends itself perfectly for small spaces such as a balcony.

Plan will follow later this year.

 

And BTW, Yes  these are also for sale. Contact me for details.
