Clear Cedar Adirondack Footrest

-The ultimate addition to your Adirondack Chair, giving it a lounger feel.

-This premium tight-grain lumber is sourced from Old Growth Western Red Cedar, which is increasingly rare. In lumber and furniture, you get what you pay for—lower-priced options simply can't match the quality, and there's a clear reason for the difference in cost.

-I use premium, quarter-sawn vertical grain, clear lumber to craft each chair, ensuring that every piece is not only unique but also of the highest quality, making it costly to produce.

-This kiln-dried lumber has been heat-treated in a specialized kiln to reduce its moisture content to a very low level, far lower than what’s typically found in big-box store lumber. This process ensures the wood is more stable and durable.

-"Clear" lumber means no knots, giving a blemish free look of perfection. Cedar is perfect for outdoor furniture because of it's light weight and resistance to decay.

-Starting with full 1-inch thick rough-cut wood, I end up with the thickest possible finished product after planing and sanding. Cheaper Footrests often use thinner lumber to stretch their materials.

-The packaging is completely plastic-free. I use satchels of fragrant cedar chips as filler, and everything in the box is either reusable or made from 100% recyclable cardboard and paper.

-All shaping is done by hand in small batches using powered tools, following a "quality over quantity" approach. I often sell out during the busy spring and summer months, but I’m always making more, so restocks are typically quick

Specifications

-Footrest dimensions are 19 inches wide, 15 inches tall and 24 inches long.

-The Footrest in the photos have been stained with Sico Proluxe Primary Coat RE 1. However all the wood I ship will be unstained, you will need to stain it if you wish, and I do recommend it for longevity.
