Adirondack Chair parts

[SketchUp Guru]

Dave, as ever, a great tutorial.

Do I understand correctly that the pathcopy script requires that you leave the original slat, even after it has been copied? Or have I misunderstood?

Thank you.

Sorry, no, you don't need to leave the original after the copies have been made. I just did that in the demo after making the footrest slats so I could repeat the operations for the seat and backrest. I could have made all three paths first and then the slats would have been done in three quick repetitions of the steps I outlined. I suppose when it comes down to it, I could have deleted the original immediately after making the footrest slats. Then I could have used one of those for making the rest. I had placed the foot rest slats inside a component which would have made accessing the slat difficult.

Thanks to you Chris.

The adirondack isn't as popular over here. I must admit I'd never considered building one until I saw a recent Norm episode. The construction seems to be quite simple, using bolts and screws. No complex joinery. Of course I have made it a bit more of a challenge with all those slats.

I made a start on prepping the timber today.

Ah, I see. Thanks Dave. :wink:
