Love the 2x3's on this
I think it looks really great with 2x3's! Thanks for the modification! Heading down to a cedar lumber place to see how much it's going to cost! :) I'm going to start with a the chair (using 2x3's for the arms) and see how it goes! :) I'd love to make the whole set... if I can afford it!
Thank you Ana!!!

Question on Modifying
I am hoping to attempt at modifying slightly into a small sectional (building 2 of these and L shaping them together) one side of each will not have an arm rest so they will join together in an L - if that makes sense lol.
I also want it a little more simple and was thinking of not doing the back rest portion w/ the slats(step 9)...Do you think I need to modify the height of the arms? Or should the back be fine at 23.5" in height? I wasn't sure if it was high enough to support sitting comfortably. I think once cushions are on it will work, but wanted to ask. Sorry if I don't make sense.
Thanks so much! LOVE all your stuff on here and have a list of things I want to make :)

Question for Ana in mid-build
Hi! I have this half built and have a question on attaching the last step. How exactly does the back of the loveseat get attached to the base? I can't seem to find that in the plans. I must be missing it somehow.
thanks! abs

When printing the Loveseat plans, go to the Sofa plan too!
And print out the last page telling you how to attach the back part!

Plans for the sofa
Hi: I checked for the sofa plans and sure enough, the steps to attach the back are shown in those plans. I think if I were making this, I might also put a cleat for the back to rest on, in addition to being screwed in.

Thanks! I'll look there
Just a side note for anyone else making this- the "cuts" list the back piece as 48 inches across but the diagram (and I believe the final correct length)is 46 1/2 inches.
Great to put together- enjoyable project!
