Yesterday, I was sitting on the couch and I noticed my brother sitting in the backyard on an old porch chair enjoying the outdoors. I thought to myself, I bet that i could make a chair a little better that that one.
Well, 24 hours later and 8 hours of sweat in the 100° heat and I built something that my brother and his wife can enjoy in the backyard by the campfire!
