How To | Build the Ultimate Adirondack Chair
The Jackman Works adirondack chair is back! This time something a little different with a walk through video. I love how many people are using my plans to build these for themselves and I get a lot of questions so I figured this build needed a more detailed video. This was my last batch in the shop in Rhode Island, …
Collapsible Folding Adirondack Table
I had a customer who wanted some tables to go with his Adirondack chairs and this was the result! This is kind of a classic design, but I modified the table to pair up with my popular Adirondack chair design with classy overhangs and nice rounded corners. These are built the same as my chairs – with clear grain western …
DIY Yard/Garden/Wedding Pergola
This pergola was built entirely from 2×4, 2×6, and 4×4 framing lumber. It also only takes a few tools to build, which makes it a very approachable project. I built it for a wedding but I could totally see this living in someone’s back yard, just scrap the bottom runners and embed the posts in concrete or fasten them to …

The most comfortable Adirondack chair you will ever find! This is a special design with a curved back and curved seat that makes it hard to believe you’re sitting in a wooden chair. The chair is made from CVG (clear vertical grain) cedar which always creates a beautiful finished product.
Wooden Mailbox
This mailbox was made completely from recycled materials. The main frame is pine boards taken out of an old church, the roof and sides are a mix of pallet wood, a birch branch, and oak scraps, and the door hardware came from some thrifty trash picking! I was winging it from the start of the project with no plans of …
Customized Utility Trailer – Sides and Cover
I wanted to expand the uses for my utility trailer and adding the sides and cover to the trailer did exactly that. The sides are made from exterior grade OSB ripped down the middle, giving me 2′ high side walls. It is attached to the metal frame simply by screws through the steel angles. The cover is made from a …
Country Club Fence Repair
A microburst blew through the country club and tipped the fence right over along with a bunch of large trees on the golf course. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen again!
Deck Renovation
This deck had some wood decking that was in really tough shape and the railing were not to code (they were too short and the lattice is not strong enough). Decking was removed and replaced and railings were extended above 36″ and balusters were added.
