New Squatch Chair

Nice work on the chair!

For outdoor finish here, I have found this stuff works pretty well:

It is a bit on the pricey side, but does seem to do a pretty good job protecting from the sun. (At least here, the sun is far more damaging than water).

The only thing I did a bit different than the instructions call for is to thin it out about 2:1 (2 parts finish to 1 part mineral spirits). Then I applied it with a rag instead of a brush. Wait a full 2 days for it to dry. Then do at least one more coat (preferably 2 or even 3) at full strength, drying 24 hours between coats. The full strength coats, you can use a brush.

Sweet, where are the beverage holders in the arm rests?

I thought the same thing. Cold tools were used in the building of the chair, but no thought to enjoying cold tools in the chair??

Au contraire mon frère! I had that very idea. But you see, it was about 102 degrees in my workshop so ideas had to be scaled back. I was thinking about buying some of those beverage inserts, like you'd see on a Vegas gaming table. That'll be as simple as cutting a hole and dropping them in.
