2x4 Outdoor Barstools

pinshape

I recently moved back into a condominium complex from a house and was faced with the challenge of furnishing an empty apartment. The kitchen area features a massive granite countertop that measures 31 inches in height, which is not standard. This presented me with two options: purchasing adjustable barstools at around $150 each or designing my own. After discovering a design online that I liked, I created a CAD package to guide me throughout the construction process. All credit for this design goes to Pete, who has an excellent tutorial on his website (http://www.diypete.com/how-to-make-bar-stools/). Using these plans, I constructed a set of barstools and was extremely pleased with the outcome. I decided to share my CAD package and models with others since they were incredibly helpful during the project. Upon completion, I estimated that I spent around $150 making four barstools, which saved me a significant amount of money and allowed me to enjoy the process. Please be aware that these barstools are quite heavy, each weighing approximately 35 pounds, with some variation due to materials used. Pete deserves full credit for designing these barstools (http://www.diypete.com/how-to-make-bar-stools/). I wanted a central location where I could access measurements, cut lengths, part numbers, and other design information all in one place. To achieve this, I created a model using OnShape and produced drawings that allowed me to quickly reference the instructions. If you decide to build these barstools, please consider sharing some photos with Pete at http://www.diypete.com.
