    Default Travisher for chair makeing

    Hi I have just finished a course on Windsor Chair making in the UK and have decided to hand make them here. I have ordered some items from Canada (Lee Valley) but need a Travisher to form the seat. Any one got any ideas on getting one I dont want a James Musell one as I cant get on with it.
    Thanks in advance
    Roger

    I have the Asley Isles travisher which works well and is very easy to use. You can just see it beside the seat in the last image.

    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.


    Regards, Woodwould.

    I have bought travisher blades on eBay from a seller called gandmtoolsales.
    My next project is to fashion an appropriate handle, which I suspect will be based on the old-fashioned design for a wooden spokeshave.
    Cheers
