Making an ordinary wooden children's chair with your own hands is not such a difficult task as it might seem at first glance. Even for those who do not have extensive experience with wood.
Of course, it’s much easier to buy a ready-made chair. However, if you like tinkering with the right tools at hand, why not make it yourself?
First of all, it is necessary to determine the size and appearance of the child's chair. To do this, it is not superfluous to draw a drawing (at least primitive) on paper. Then we saw the blanks.
The main stages of work
After you saw the right number of blanks, you need to cut out the details of the desired shape from them. You can do this on a band saw or just cut off the excess with a plane. And then we make a marking for drilling holes for dowels.
At the next stage, glue two side parts of the highchair. Clamp them with clamps and leave until the glue dries.
After that, we assemble the frame of the chair, and in the place where the back will be, the author makes the grooves of the desired depth. This is necessary so that the back of the chair is flush.
And then it remains only to install the seat and backrest on their "seats". Then the chair needs to be sanded with a grinder.
The final touch is painting. You can paint a chair in one color, or you can use several colors of paint. This is at your discretion.
