Influenced in part by Adirondack chairs, Rob Hare’s outdoor chair can be made with scrap from other projects, as none of the pieces is more than 32 in. long. Beefy mortise-and-tenon joinery, epoxy with microfiber added for strength, and stainless-still screws as a joinery backup combine to make it a chair that will last decades. The seat and back slats are tapered, and a jig makes easy work of the angled mortise-and-tenons.
