This project was beyond fun! The goal was to create a custom Tractor Chair + Bookshelf to serve as the anchor piece in a young boy’s tractor themed room in Burr Ridge. We started by taking sketch from Sheryl Allen Interiors and turning it into a working measured drawing. We loaded up the pile of tractor parts and assembled on site while a excited little boy provided supervision — The result was a one of a kind piece which will provide the stage for an active imagination for year’s to come!
Custom Tractor Chair
From The Homeowner:
“Not only was the craftsmanship impeccable but Dave was also very considerate, responsive, and helped us think of how best to design the space to suit our family’s needs. We’d recommend him with no hesitations!”
First, we started with a design and measured drawing.
Next, we dialed in final fabrication details.
From there, we built a platform with steel pipe axels and custom beveled wheels.
Finally we painted the tractor chair in a Caterpillar Tractor color scheme.
As the project started to take shape, we added the bookcase scoop, bench, canopy and secret trunk compartment.
