Double Outdoor Chaise Lounger

Build the frame from the sides and front/back pieces using the longer screws, two per joint, with exterior wood glue.

Attach the legs with the longer screws, keeping the back rest bay clear of legs.

Attach the 2x2 cleats inside the back rest area, flush to the bottom, with the longer screws and glue.

Adjust the frame for square. Glue and attach the long deck pieces to the top with the shorter screws, then space out and attach the center deck pieces.

Attach the back slats to the backrest supports with the shorter screws. Attach the prop-up spacers to the backrest supports with the longer screws, then hinge the remaining prop-up piece to the spacers.

Attach the prop-up assemblies to the back pieces with the shorter screws.

Hinge the entire back rest assemblies to the main frame.

Test-fit the backrests closed, then position the stop blocks inside the frame at the desired reclining angles and attach with the longer screws.

Sand all surfaces and apply exterior stain or paint.
