Here is the Cad drawing and schematic for our project. You will need
to reference this drawing the entire way through the building phase, so you
would be well advised to print this out in as clear format as possible. The
entire construction of our chair is 3/4" plywood with a couple of little
sticks of 3/4" solid wood and 1/4" plywood. The reason we will be
building this out of plywood is because the seat box that will hold the boom box
for the voice of the Crypt Keeper is frenched in to the legs and achieving this
with 4 x 4s would be very difficult. Here is the cutout and materials

We will be starting our project by
building the seat to our chair. We
want the front to be ported so, as
we mentioned a moment ago, we can
put a boom box inside and the sound
will travel through. Since we don't
want anyone to see the boom box
inside between the CK knees, we'll
need to cover this opening with
speaker fabric. First construct
your box using the above dimensions
from the cut out list. The finished
size of the seat will be 10" high,
23 1/2" wide and 21" deep. Our
sides and top and floor will be cut
out at 20 1/4" deep because we are
making an overlay face frame for it
out of 3/4" material, thus
achieving 21" depth when completed.
Above is the box and face frame
before they are attached. In my
case, I am set up to style and rail
the four pieces of the face frame
together, giving me a perfect notch
in the back (face frame is shown
face down here) to hold my speaker
fabric later. In your case, you may
want to simply cut a piece of
plywood 10" x 23 1/2" and cut out
an opening in it that is on center,
5 1/2" high x 14 1/4" wide. Then
you can notch the back out with a
3/8" rabbit bit for the speaker
cover to fit into. After you glue
and nail the face frame or piece of
plywood to the front of your box,
sand the edges of the frame flush
with the box. For now we will leave
the back of the seat open but later
we'll show you the two pieces that
will frame out the opening for the
door.
