      \"junkyard<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Make a good base for your chair- cut a board of 2x12x8 size to fit the size of your chair.<\/em><\/strong> The cut should be done in that the lower area to be wide for easy accessibility and appearance. To achieve this, you can make the top to be around 8 inches wider than the top. And it should also be 2 inches longer it that of chair flame.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \"cut<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Once you have done this, set up the two in a stable area and place the chair on top<\/em><\/strong>– To make it durable and robust, you need to nail the stands. Ensure that everything is straight from the board and the end. Measure the distance between the two boards and have four cuts of 2×4 and place it at the bottom perpendicular to the base. Drill and screw and repeat it on the other side to fully assemble it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

           <\/p>\n

            \n
          • After finishing the base now is to begin mocking up with your L-Brackets –<\/em><\/strong> The brackets will hold the base from falling off. With a Christmas, tree drill makes holes and take off the nails once you have done it. You can now test your chair on the base and see how it is. If there are some bolts that are seen, you can drill a hole that is large enough to make the base to fit in. If this is well done, the seat should be sitting flat and looks almost done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
