Fig. 57.—Part Plan of Seat.
A rustic garden seat with canopy is illustrated by [Fig. 58]. Where shade is required, the back and canopy offer facilities for securing it, as they can be covered with climbers. [Fig. 58] is not drawn to scale, but the explanatory diagrams ([Figs. 59] to [Fig. 64]) are ¾ in. to the foot.
Fig. 58.—Garden Seat with Canopy.
The upright posts and all the more important pieces will best be formed of somewhat small larch stuff; the smaller straight sticks may be hazel, birch, or withy. The last named, stripped of its bark, and used in some parts only, will form a pretty contrast with the darker rods. In filling spaces in back and canopy, a few pieces of crooked stuff are used; these will probably be of apple-tree.
