If it was me, I’d resaw it into thinner material and use it for making boxes. But my opinion is biased because I like making boxes. :-) -- Charlie M. "Woodworking - patience = firewood" |

You have some good material for making adirondack chairs. You’ll have to resaw to get narrower boards but you could do that on a TS (don’t need a bandsaw). You would have to glue up some boards for the rear legs and the arms. Otherwise, strips of lumber is what you need for an adirondack chair. I don’t know your skill level. I consider an adirondack chair to be a good starter project. There are lots of variation in style and some are easier than others. -- Rich, Cedar Rapids, IA - I'm a woodworker.
