Thread: Maloof rocker

It is beautiful, and it is a challenge for any woodworker so well done.

Very pretty.

Well done.

Beautiful work.

Did you get plans to make the chair? If yes, where'd you get them from?

Regards,

Adam

Yes, I used the Charles Brock videos and book. It wasn't cheap ($80?) but very instructive.

Very frustrating but eventually I got it done. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment but I'm going to do two more. Both will go to charities for their fund raising auctions.

A friend of mine is a pretty good amateur photographer so he came over to my place and took a bunch of pictures. If you want to see them go to the link below. Any image you want to see just click on the picture and when it opens click on it again to see the full size image. Constructive criticism encouraged (I mean it). That's one way I learn. Thanks.

Yeah, I know you're slinging fecal material. I like someone who has a good sense of humor laced with sarcasm. Makes me smile. Thanks.
