Where to find free lawn furniture directions

I was at the county fair and saw all the wonderful wooden lawn furniture (adirondack style chairs, planter boxes, etc.) and it gave me the building bug! Plus, I got a router for my birthday today....woohoo! (Thanks, HT, for the birthday card, by the way!!)

Do you know of anywhere online that has directions to make this type of furniture. My googling isn't working.

Thanks!

Here's a free online site. A little slow on dial up, but the plans loaded within about 7 minutes at 44k for me.

Go to your local library and check out The wood right shop. It has all the directions you need on building all types of furniture and the first one or two is a Adirondack chair. You will need the book to have in front of you when you start building furniture. You may can do it by being on line but your computer will not like sawdust.

I get my free lawn furniture by driving around ritzy neighborhoods in the spring and fall! Yuppies tend to throw away their resin furniture as soon as it gets dirty, but a spritz of Tilex, scrubby pad and hose takes care of that nicely.

I have all the furniture I need now, plus I've sold 2 sets that I've cleaned up so far this year.
