I started building some outdoor chairs with the Littlejohns this summer, but the completion of the project ended up getting postponed for various reasons. Unfortunately, this meant that the unfinished chairs were sitting in our garage taking up space that should have been occupied by a car (or some obscenely amazing outdoor gear). Thanks to some help from my Dad, and several weekends of painting later this isn’t the case anymore.
What would have taken a normal craftsman a weekend managed to take me about 3 months, but they’re finished. A pessimist might point out that it’s just in time for the rainy season, but I’m choosing to ignore that. I’m actually reasonably happy with them, and glad to have the garage back. One of these days the rain storms will hold off, and I’ll enjoy an outdoor fire while sitting in the new chairs. So what if it’s May by the time it happens.
