Here's a little chair I made for my grandson. My daughter and her husband adopted him less than a year ago. He is a special needs child with multiple handicaps, but he is so happy and loving. He will soon be five years old, and this chair was a gift for him. I had the idea from here:http://www.sewforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=161737&hilit=pvc+chair.

The directions are on page 2. They are very easy to make.

I'm sure your husband can figure this out. I have other pictures of the back and side also if it would help him further. You could pm me.

Thank-you. I have a brother in construction who told me that if you use the grey electrical pvc pipes, the chairs can be left in the sun without becoming brittle. I hope to try that in the future, too.
