Although the chair is lightweight, i dont think that property outweighs the labour involved enough to make it worthwhile using. If I used mild steel flatbar or even bent tubing it wouldve been done in less than half the time.

Overview
Aluminium is incredibly difficult to use in the workshop. The welds werent sticking and the TIG electrode kept overheating and damaging the metal. It also feels quite fragile and warps alot under heavy weight. This couldve been overcome with T-bars extending dwon the legs but i thought it wouldve ruined the aesthetic so i didnt include them.
