Using cedar 2x4s cut to 1.5x3. Planning to seal with outdoor polyurithane varnish. Any thoughts on the design thus far?

Don’t die. It’s a prototype and I’ll need like 7 of those. I cut two lefts rather than a left and right.

Do you have other joinery gong on, or are those legs relying on pocket screws to hold the load? Is it going to stand up to the racking forces that chairs take?

Just screws and glue so far in the design

are you comfortable with that joint taking that load?
