    Childs chairs for Ronald McDonald house.







    Our woodworking club has been asked to make chairs for children by Ronald McDonald house here in Lubbock. They will have local artists decorate these chairs and then offer them for auction as a fund raiser. These are the first two. They want thirty of them. Three different sizes. Made of 1/2” baltic birch plywood and are twenty inches tall.. Only twenty-eight more to make.

    Wonderful project!

    The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...

    Children use them for two purposes. To break up stuff and take breaks. Good of you to help. I like the lean light design, I think it would be greatly improved by replacing the glue blocks on the back with a 45 degree block with angled end cuts.

    Great project for an outxtanding charity Jim!

    I second Mel's suggestion for changing it a tad.
