Someone has asked me about building this chair. The back is straightforward. Not sure about the legs, though. How would you join the legs on this chair?

Yea, I think like rockyT says. It is probably doweled into the seat as well as dovetailed to the extension. It will support the vertical weight alright as long as it is not dragged around too much. The back appear to be tongue and grooved into the seat as well. I am not sure if I like the structure although the design is appealing.

Thanks everyone. I figured screws would just split the legs. I didn't think about a sliding dovetail. That's interesting.

We'll see . . .
