![]() ![]() ![]() Springs can be purchased at upholstery supply shops.īut since mine are dining chairs, and I like my chairs very firm, I used plywood. I’ve watched videos of springs being added to chair frames, and it doesn’t look difficult. And if I were making living room chairs, I’d probably take the time to learn how to use actual springs. □ But if I were making occasional chairs rather than dining chairs, I’d forgo the plywood and use jute upholstery webbing for the seat. It’s probably less of a problem for most people than it is for me since I’m just 5 feet tall. I prefer a firm seat on dining chairs because if the seats have too much give to them, you can end up sitting too low at the dining table. I used a plywood base because these are dining chairs. I just used one screw on each side to attach this piece. I found that cutting the ends of the side seat supports at 2.5 degrees worked perfectly to give that ever-so-slight angle to the seat so that it was just a tad bit higher in front and angled down towards the back.Īnd then I finished up the main frame of the seat support by adding the front piece, cut to 19.5″ long, and secured with wood glue and 2.5″ screws through the sides of the front legs and into the ends of the front support piece. I avoid geometry at all costs, so I just tested out some different angles to see what would work. That means that the seat has a very slight angle to it, so the ends of the side supports needed to be cut at slight angles. On the area where the side seat supports attach to the back side supports, the top of the side seat support is about 16.5″ from the bottom.
