Full-Size Patterns from - The Stick Chair Book

Full-Size Patterns from The Stick Chair Book. Christopher Schwarz

This set of full-size paper patterns includes all the important components for the five chairs in The Stick Chair Book. The five 22" x 34" sheets contain full-scale drawings of all the seats, arms, backrests, shoes and combs for the chairs. The drawings also include all the mortise locations, drilling sightlines and centerlines.

With these sheets, you can easily make full-scale patterns in plywood, posterboard or masonite. Then you can use these patterns to make your own versions of these stick chairs and start modifying them to create your own original chair designs.

Please Note: These five sheets contain only the full-scale patterns of the parts mentioned above. They do not include dimensioned construction drawings, a cutting list or construction information. For those, you will need to consult The Stick Chair Book

Important: The plan for the Six Stick Comb-Back Chair was slightly scaled down by the printer. The most notable change is the seat is reduced from 20" to 19" wide.

Lost Art Press Suggested Fixes:

• Ignore the error. The slight scaling won’t change the chair much. Chris Schwarz states he has made the chairs with narrower seats with no problem.
• Use the seat pattern for the Lowback Chair instead. It is the same size and shape. The legs are in the same place. The spindles on the seat are the same space apart (3" on centers). The only thing you’ll have to do is step off one more spindle on both sides of the spindle deck.
• Download the PDF of the Upscaled Comb-Back Chair Plans and get it printed out at your local reprographics business
