    The seats were cut to their final shape and sanded. It is a good idea to carve away more waste around the joint before gluing up.

    I am using a 2-part epoxy for the glue-up. It sets slowly and is a good gap filler.

    A nervous moment, I placing the first chair to a flat surface and all 4 feet stood firmly without any gaps. So it is so far so good.

    I am pretty happy with the design, it looks like a handsome chair.

    Thumbs up

    You're right about handsome chairs Wongo, I like 'em too and those are handsome chairs.

    We bought our current house from a Taiwanese/ Australian couple. He was a furniture maker by trade and had 19 different hand made chairs in the lounge room! they were all gorgeous!! he also had a couple of tables and all the bed room furniture was made by him. I don't recall seeing better workmanship anywhere!

    Every stick of furniture was Rosewood!!
