Default Which Adirpondackk chair plans to use?

Am going to build an Adirondack chair out of WRC but would appreciate some input as to which plan to use from those of you who have built these chairs. Norm's? Lee Valley? Thanks for any input.

Here is a good plan to look at and modify as you see fit.

I've built both. including the rocking chair version of the Lee Valley chair.
Norm's chair is a lot easier to build, but the Lee Valley chair is a lot more comfortable.

I know this is 6 months late but maybe you still need the information... I used this set from Woodcraft...very good design..nice and rugged.
