1) Find out you have to pay to get rid of an old tyre so decide to ‘up-cycle’ it
2) Use a drill and jigsaw to cut a slot through the tread
3) Stick a plank through the slot
4) Screw some scrap timber onto the foot of the plank and also through the tread to hold the plank in place
5) Screw some more planks across the top of the plank to form a back rest
6) Screw another scrap of timber to stop it rocking back too far
et voila, a garage rocking chair!
It is pictured leant right back against the stopper. normally the seat is a bit more upright and you can gently rock back and forth without spilling your beer.
