Woodworking can sometimes feel intimidating, especially when you see complex workshop setups and expensive machinery. But building your own furniture doesn’t have to be complicated! If you are looking for a quick, rewarding project to boost your DIY confidence, you are in the right place.
Today, we are building a sturdy, space-saving folding stool. The best part? There are no complicated joinery techniques or expensive jigs required. All you need is some basic lumber, a handful of screws, and one reliable power tool. Let’s get building!
What You Will Need:
Pre-cut wooden slats (for the seat and legs), dowels, screws, hinge, and a DEKO Drill.
There are only a few steps:

First, drill a hole through the center of the wooden strips that will serve as the chair legs.

Second, assemble the wooden boards according to the design, inserting a concealed dowel into the center of the wooden strips.

Third, secure the two chair legs using wooden crossbars, and fasten additional crossbars beneath the seat.

Next, attach hinges at the joints between the chair legs and the seat.

And just like that, your ultra-simple folding chair is complete!
Now, the easy folding stool is ready! You can sit on it, or place anything on it!
