Folding Chair

My first choice for materials would be 1/4 inch steel plate, but just the steel for the chair would be about $400 before cnc laser cutting. I will be making a model out of steel and then powdercoating it. I hope to build one fullsize out of plywood with formica on the faces of all the parts. I think that I can get access to a CNC router for free, plus I have about 10 sheets of formica sitting around. The tubes would be polished aluminum on the plywood version.

Arms would be feasible, but I don't want them. Arms really close off the chair making it look too boxy, I also like the option of sitting on it sideways.

If I end up getting free access to the cnc router, I make make one of these in a "double wide". In a production run they could be sold individually with parts to combine two into one.
