I posted a couple weeks ago about how y'all think this chair is assembled, and I determined that a metal rod is the best way to attach the cushion to the seat.
I need to build a plywood seat from that the upholstery will attach to, and im not sure how to approach this angled joint (circled in black). The seat will be supported in the front on a cross rail, and there will be a metal rod that runs through the seat cushion attaching it to the sides of the chair.
Both cushions will be 5" thick. My current plans is to laminate two 3/4" pieces of BB for the seat bottom. The back will be a two pieces of 1/2" BB, with a 1/2" space between them for a metal rod to slide through. The space between the 1/2" BB pieces will be filled in around the metal rod space to provide structure.
I need to somehow attach the seat bottom and the back and im not sure what the best method is? Was thinking of a couple large box joints? Or perhaps some custom angled metal brackets for support?
