A comfortable Arts & Crafts styled rocker featuring an upholstered back which is held in place by wood screws. A loose seat cushion is to rest on the seat slats. Upholstery options and techniques are not discussed in the plan, so you should plan on taking care of that aspect of the project on your own. This rocking chair is a simple, sturdy piece of American furniture that is sure to last for years. Overall dimensions: 27" wide, 38" high. This is a blueprint style plan which is heralded by beginners and experts alike as being a pleasure to work from because all parts are printed in full size -- all joinery is shown in actual size, curved workpieces are all in full size, therefore you can measure and trace straight from the drawing if necessary. A bill of materials doubles as an exact cutting list, there is a detailed exploded diagram, and all hardware requirements are provided. The exploded diagram so detailed that project specific assembly instructions are not provided. A special booklet entitled Guide to Building Wood Furniture is included with each Furniture Designs, Inc. plan and includes many tips explaining the "component theory" of woodworking.
