Pattern routing simplifies the use of complex shapes in furniture construction. Create the pattern once and then make as many parts as you need, all of them identical. In this 13-minute video, Jeff Farris will explain some details about the bits used in pattern routing and show you how to build a nifty Firepit Chair using patterns. Both digital files for CNC and full-scale PDF files for the chair parts are available for free download!

The PDF files that have “8.5x11…” in the file name are made to print in a normal laser or inkjet home printer. Print them out and tape them together aligning the targets.
The PDF file ending in “Full-Size Print” is set up for printing on a plotter, which a local print shop or library may have available.
The PDF titled “Woodpeckers Firepit Chair High Seat_Drawing_061325.pdf” is a single sheet with dimensions to help you plan and build your chairs.
For the CNC owners, there are DXF and SVG files of the two legs and the top slat.
