This Rustic wood folding chair is made for the beach. It has never actually been to the beach. It has heard about the beach and even seen pictures, but it has never been. The folding chair has basically been on the front porch watching the cars going by. This wood chair has also seen the occasional Jehovas Witness as well as traveling salesmen selling landscaping services, magazine subsriptions and automobile windshields. Yes, a man once offered to examine my windshield for free to see if I needed a new one and lo and behold he found a problem. It was some kind of blemish, perhaps a nick or scratch of some sort. This man had the eyes of an eagle. Anyway, I passed on his windshield replacement or repair services. But I did keep the free window inspection. The chair and I where both bewildered. Anyway, getting back to the subject at hand. It was made from a discarded wooden shipping container. That perhaps was used to ship something somewhat large. The wood container was disassembled (obviously) and then hand planed by hand. The slats where then rounded with a drawknife and then but together with exterior grade wood screws. I can’t remember what type of finish I used because it was made about ten or so years ago. The reclaimed wood chair has a weathered look, mainly due to the weather. This folding beach chair has seen better days and I have seen better chairs. There are actually two of these wooden chairs. The other one looks exactly like the other. So just hit the ‘refresh’ button on your web browser and it will be just like seeing the other one.
