    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    Found a project. Cleaning up the hood the "cabinet maker" made. It had a .25" bow on the left side. Took the reciprocating tool with a general purpose blade and ran ot against the level for a straight edge. I had to improvise away to hold the level i the right spot at the bottom. Backed out the screws and cut through the Brad nails. Filled some gaps and minor cracks. Tomorrow will be sand and trim it out shaker style to match the kitchen cabinets. And a couple of pics of the shop space. Hoping to be in before Labor Day.

    Sorry. I wish that I could help. I draw the patterns on grid paper and they are basically destroyed when I glue them to MDF to make templates. I don’t do anything in the computer. If anyone wants basic measurements I would be happy to help.

    Just thought ...

    Next time you make them, you could take a picture of the pattern on the grid paper, provide the grid size and provide key measurements (bottom width, leg width, angle on the seat, etc). Most could work from that, I think.

    This is the best that I can do for you on this project. The chart paper squares are 1”. The seat assembly and back slats are 16”.

    FYI - I just drew this out to look nice and used what I have learned from my other chair builds. Time will tell if the design is stable and strong. All of my other chairs are still solid at this time.

    I did sit on it this morning and am still alive.
