Here's the method I use to draw cyclohexane chairs.

Explanation:

A cyclohexane chair is like an outdoor lounge chair.

It has a seat, a backrest, and a leg rest.

I'll show you how to draw both chairs at the same time.

Step 1. Draw two horizontal parallel lines, one slightly offset from the other.

These will form the seat of the chair.

Step 2. Add two lines pointing up to make the backrest of the chair.
