Jonathan,
The Andy Rae design is appealing.

I want to build a pair of Adirondack chairs and place them in a shady area under some trees.? The area is watered once per day through the growing season.? This is dry country so surfaces normally dry within about 30 minutes.? Wood fence rails last until the sun eventually eats them.? I am looking for material suggestions.? Trex would be alright except it is too weak and, to put it nicely, unprepossessing.? Chair slats will probably be 3/8" or 1/2" and need to hold a screw.? At the other end, teak would be perfect but too expensive to just leave outside.? ?I've considered cedar and redwood.? What other options are there?
I am also looking for a plan set.? There is an inherent weakness in the arm-to-back connection so looking for a design idea that addresses that issue.? Any suggestions are appreciated.
