Try your hand at crafting a sturdy chair with a simple yet functional design that has been around for thousands of years. A Viking chair consists of just two pieces of wood. A large board is used as a back rest and a smaller board slides through the backrest and becomes the seat. The angle of the Viking chair allows you to sit comfortably and lean back to relax. Unique to a Viking chair is that no fasteners are used. The chair slips together and can slip apart easily to be stored. Your basic design can be personalized with carvings, wood burnings, designs or embellishments.
