The Chair-Ski (project) is a DIY construction project completed by Andrew and Kevin in a Season 1 episode of the same name.

Construction

There were two designs for the Chair-Ski though only one, "Plan B", was ever constructed.

Plan A

"Plan A" also known as the "Mark I", was to have been constructed from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plumbing pipe and fittings. The brothers chose PVC for buoyancy, slight flexibility and lightness. They abandoned "Plan A" however, when Andrew discovered that the local hardware store was closed on Sundays.

==Plan B==

"Plan B" also known as the "Mark II", was a backup plan devised by Andrew after the initial failure to secure the PVC pipe and fittings for "Plan A". The only store that Andrew found that was open on a Sunday had dearth of plumbing supplies. He was able to purchase polyethylene foam pool noodles and hardwood dowels. These materials were put into use along with cedar dimension lumber the brothers had at the cottage.
