This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in round wood woodworking.

For this BB, you will build two nice outdoor chairs!


(source: Pinterest.com

Minimum requirements:
 - must look very nice (this is the iron badge after all)
 - must be stable when people sit on them
 - must be oiled with raw linseed oil, tung oil or some other natural oil to protect the chairs from the elements
 - must be made with roundwood (no dimensional lumber)

To get certified for this BB provide photos or video (less than 2 minutes) showing the following:
- Your chunks of wood that you are starting with
- Progress about halfway through, with the hand tools you have decided to use for this
- List any power tools you used (Otis would love it if you only used hand tools)
- show what you are oiling the chairs with
- oiling the chairs
- The final product
 
For your bravery above and beyond the call of duty, I hereby award you this tiny ad:
