Sneak Peek - 1st of run
Very Pleased!
Here is the first dining chair of a run of 8.
The timbers are Black Wattle & Silver Ash. SWMBO is very pleased with the 'almost' finished 1st chair.
It has just had it's first coat of lacquer, 2-3 more to go
Cheers

fantastic
Looks great and looks like it has a good lumber support as well.
Cushioned seat I assume.
Have you done this before?

Major,
It seems like it has been a year or more since we were arguing over the joinery of the seat rails to the front rail in your design. I was beginning to think you might have given up woodwork in favour of collecting planes
How did you end up joining the seat rails to the front rail, by the way?
Those chairs will certainly look impressive when you have finished the set.

Very nice work! I love the Silver Ash. What region is that from? I've never heard of it before.
I've also never attempted any type of chair before. They seem very intimidating, especially when you are making a set of 8! I'm impressed! Any suggested resources for designing chairs? Eventually, I'll need to do the same.
Excellent work,
Matt
