Need back porch furniture plans
#11
Specifically, a love seat, couple of chairs (maybe a rocker), and a coffee table.  Wood of course.

In this day and age I'm hesitant to link a plan for something like patio furniture. That guy who steals everyones copyrighted property uses so many names and links I'd be scared what I was linking wasn't something the real owner wanted links of out there, at least for free.

I've made several Adirondack chairs and I am now making a custom one for the BIL. I'm redesigning the legs and the wood connections to flow together. This one will take a long time, but you can make two at a time the regular way in two days easy.

Look for plans- I have my measurements written down the way I like them and use my patterns to start them off. I've found the most comfortable seat height is 14"-15" at the front, seat width 22", seat length 18.5- 20", between arm rests width 18-19",  and seat to arm at 8.5". I make the back adjustable.

 I do natural and dyed/stained and antiqued all with clear coats.

 There's one still sitting in the weather in the yard for a endurance test.

 This is the one I quickly made for the yard to see if it lasts. So far very good. This pic shows the adjustable metal plate I made for experimenting- it too is working well.

I think going to one of the known magazines, or with Narm would do well, and you would be be paying the right guy, if there were a fee. Another thought is to look at the local library, mine has a lot of books on DIY projects, many are geared toward things like outdoor furniture.

Maybe Michael Fortune's Garden Chair? Plans are available for it. 

The classic Adirondack chair can be converted to a love seat.

Do you have a furniture style in mind?

I'm not getting a pic, and the link is playing hard to wrap too. It is a nice chair design, sort of makes you think of a Cialis commercial, without water.

I haven't built any of them, but Meisel Hardware Specialties has a lot of different outdoor furniture plans.

If you are going down a river at 2 mph and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to shingle your roof?
