why do we use the same manufacturing techniques in 2024 as we did in 1982
As you can imagine since 1982 we have seen it all, every possible method to manufacture outdoor furniture.
In 1982 all manufacturers made outdoor tables, chairs and benches the same.
There were of course different shapes but the method to make them were basically the same eg.
- table and bench seat legs were crossed then bolted in the center
- legs single bolted to the table and bench seat top
Sometime in the early 1990's two of the largest manufacturers in West Australia changed their design
- Clarecraft
- Jensen Jarrah
They both tried to make a Jarrah outdoor chair using the same manufacturing techniques used to make a dining room chair.
They used a butt joint using a dowel and glue as they wanted to create a curved looking chair similar to a dining room chair.
But there were and still are today December 03, 2024 major faults with this design for an outdoor chair.
think about this
When you sit on a dining room chair you will not lean back and rock on the two back legs.
The opposite applies to an outdoor chair some people do rock on the two back legs.
what is the design fault
If you rock on the two back legs on a chair constructed using a butt joint and dowel it will break and basically cannot be repaired.
If a person rocks back on a chair made using a lap joint and a bolt (the method we have always used since 1982) all that may eventually happen is a bolt or bolts may loosen.
To fix the chair all you have to do is tighten the bolts nut.
you may not care
Some people do not care as they prefer to have a curved looking chair and do not care if it breaks in a short period of time, that is fine its their money they are wasting.
Whereas King of Jarrah want their clients to purchase a comfortable chair that will withstand many years of use in the outdoor environment.
