Done a wee bit on my chair this week shaped the back rest and fixed the seat to the back legs. The wiggly waney edged timber makes for some interesting marking out when trial and error fails some temporary lines help out. Glorious weather this week short sleeves have been the order with temp of 16-17c ,but we shouldn't get used to it .As march came in like a lamb and could go out like a lion!! :)
Other than almost breaking my neck to get the angles I wanted to see, it looks good so far. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Gorges for looking in and welcome to talk from the timber :)
ReplyDeleteThe sunny weather makes everything better. I even had my shorts on today! I love working outside when its like this, I'm sure you do as well - not so great in the winter though! The chair is looking good, where's it for?
ReplyDeleteHey Avalti yeah the sun makes the working day disapear unlike the dragging wet days. The chair is for a lady we know .Keep grafting mate. Brian
ReplyDeleteI check your site and the Happy Trappers site often.
ReplyDeleteAre you a full time woodworker? Your pieces motivate me to build more esthetically practical items.
Hi Art I work as a foreman in a small sawmill so yes a woodworker is my full time profession. With all the noise and fast pace of the process .Its nice to make things by hand with hand tools which is quiet and relaxed compared to the noise of the sawmill :)
