Double Porch Rocker

With its solid construction and elegant design, this rocker is sure to be the most relaxing project you have ever built.

With this classic-style rocker, you can spend time relaxing on your porch, deck, or patio. It has ample space for one person to stretch out while reading a good book. But it’s just the right size to cozy up to your significant other, kids, grandkids, or the family dog. We spent a lot of time getting the shape of the rockers just right for easy, no-effort rocking. The seat slats are curved for comfort. We’ll show you how to make them using a pattern to lay out the shape before cutting them on a band saw using a jig. Also, there’s something unique about the way the seat slats are attached to the rails. Instead of screws, we used slotted dowels secured with thin wedges. This provides a long-lasting connection that will stay strong for years to come.
