Modern Lounge Chair

This week, we decided to put our design and engineering skills to the test by building a wooden live hinge lounge chair. The chair is made from 3/4" plywood and has walnut end caps. We used a technique called live hinge, where you take out material in a uniform pattern, which allows the plywood to compress and then bend.

I have been a woodworker for many years but admittedly I have never cut a living hinge from plywood. Am I missing something here? There seems to be no symmetry whatsoever, other than the Y coordinate. Not all of the rectangles are the same size. The pattern just looks off.

There are no files. Design is on Easel. It is on the right side of the picture.

The legs are also on the same Easel file. Look at the left bottom of the page.

I too cannot find the files for the legs. Also can I have the build files too. I am not on Instagram, in fact I don't know what it is.
