A super video showing how you made your stools. I love the fact that you pointed out your mistakes and how you made adjustments. That’s always a part of woodworking and people need to see the problem solving in action. The stools look like they are perfect for your balcony.

I'm so happy to see you complete your first project in your new workshop. These Adirondack Chairs are a great spin off of the original classic Adirondack Chairs. I'm sure these chairs will get a lot of use on your deck! Great Job April!

Nice work. I enjoy your honesty when making a mistake. I’ve been a woodworker for 55 years and it’s a rare project that works exactly as planned ...as I planned anyway. As a woman your age I’m surprised you didn’t go solar powered. If you do plan it I haven’t heard it mentioned in your podcasts. You have a lot of years of projects in your future so solar is an investment that will pay for itself many times in your shop. Keep the great projects coming.

The seat slat over hang looks really good and the extra material will be much more stable in the long run. Looks like a height adjustable rolling random parts resting table dolly would be a handy next project

Hey April your shop is looking great. If I may suggest when doing half-lap joints, take it to the compound mitre saw and set the depth of cut. The put start and stop blocks at either end, set the mitre angle - the make 1/8 to 1/4" cuts all the way from start to finish. You'll be left with a bunch of little cards you can knock them out with a hammer. You're then left with two options, smooth the rabbet with a chisel or router or my preference is to put them back on the saw and slide the rabbet between stops the saw blade will scrape the remaining ridges away and leave you with a nice smooth rabbet. Hint when doing that, is to put a spacer against the fence a 2by is enough then you don't have to flip the work piece .

It looks better with the seat slats hanging over a bit, and most of these types of chairs I've seen have a bit of overhang, so I can see why you thought it should be that way. Cool build. I like your improvisation with getting those weird angles to work with the equipment you have.

Love those chairs. A bar I used to go to had almost the exact same chairs around the pool table, so I think they would be great in a rec room as well. Now let's hurry up and fill that metal working side of the shop up with some machines so I can see some more metalworking videos!
