Rustic Hammock-Style Wilderness Chair

Step 14 Finishing touches - Arm Chair

Two additional logs are used as Arms.  

They are shown here running between the dovetails and the third Kick-Stand leg of the tripod. 
The Arms are lashed at both locations.  
Future modification -  If we had lashed the Arm logs higher above the dovetails, they might have functioned as proper Armrests.  

While not entirely necessary; the Arms are partially for astetics; completing the triangular star shape of the chair when viewed from the side.

As an added measure of safety; they also act to hold the third leg of the tripod (the Kick Stand) in place.  

Securing the bottom of the Kick Stand leg removes the temptation anyone might have about Kicking this leg out from from under the chair while anyone was in it.  Not that any scout would think of doing that...

You may not need this added measure of safety if you aren't amongst pranksters.

This may not be the way that you did it in the photo, but you could use a tripod lashing at the union of the Kick Stand and the Arms. That would likely be the quickest and most rope efficient method. I hope that is help to anyone who needs it.
