Many of you have probably seen this and it is from a plan at:
http://www.gcwoodworks.com/onit_woodworking_plan.htm
Thought it would be a good idea to post the source of plans here if you did buy it. I know I’m interested in the rocking horse plans in a previous post and look forward to the source.
I don’t make them anymore (made 28 of them and tired of it), but I can tell you they create a lot of interest and are a good item to sell. I made most of mine out of cherry.
You can easily imagine them in a old log cabin where space was a premium. The item provided seating, ironing board or table and a ladder.
The images are small so are not clear until you enlarge them.
Enjoy!

yah this is great… am picturing several around a table—can pull them out as serving boards.. push them to the cupboards to get that rarely-used dish from the top shelf.. pull it back up to the table for seating… uh huh.
Nice

Hi Brian,
This is a very interesting project. It is hard to see the details on it due to the picture size but I do like the first picture demonstrating how to switch the chair back and forth. I have not seen that before.
Thanks for sharing.

Great chair! I have always heard that it was a Ben Franklin chair.

This is a great chair. Could you make one more with lobster shell inlays?

That would be great for a small apartment or college frat house.
