How to Build a Suntime Havana Duo Seat
Building the Suntime Havana Duo Seat can sometimes be a challenge as the instructions supplied are poor and the parts often do not line up easily.
These walk through pictures along with the instructions will help you to build your new furniture which will give you years of pleasure.
Important notes before building the Havana duo seat:
Always leave the screws loose while building to allow you to line up the parts easier.
Un-package the glass carefully as it will break if damaged.
If too much weight is put on the front of the fabric or it is tightened too far, it will come out of the frame. Use a large flat screw driver and hammer to knock it back into place and large grips to close the frame tighter.
Parts of the chair are easily bent when building especially the legs which can cause the seat to not sit level. The legs are easily bent back to shape if needed by putting weight on them carefully.

Cast Iron Chimeneas
One of the best things about Cast Iron Chimeneas is the amount of heat that can be given out, you can fire Cast Iron Chimeneas to the maximum with no fear of cracking or breaking (although the finish may damage). Cast Chimeneas can be left out in all weathers and as the heat dissipates very quickly through the metal it will quickly warm the patio all around the body.
Cast Iron Chimeneas
To keep your Chimenea looking great keep oily rags handy to wipe over your Chimenea when cool to help protect the Chimenea from excessive rusting. If the Chimenea is fired to high temperatures the heat resistant paint used to colour the Cast Iron Chimenea may burn off, but can be repainted with any high temperature paint if you wish, although most people like the antique effect of a well-used Chimenea!
Quick tips: Wipe over with an oily rag after use. Use any heat resistant paint to touch up. Lift by the base not the funnel.
Don’t forget, Cast Iron Chimeneas get very hot in use and should not be touched for some time afterwards.
Clay Chimeneas
Clay Chimeneas are commonly classed as the best looking of all chimeneas and work in quite a different way to cast Iron. Within Clay Chimeneas the heat builds and is slowly released through the Chimenea walls which radiates slower than Cast Iron.
