Great video! Nice craftsmanship and fix on the split. Glad I found this one... Will be watching and learning.

This is excellent. Nice job, even on the fixes. Thank you for sharing them, btw.

Awesome work! I really enjoy my backstools, but I had no idea what the book meant by saddling the seat with a jack plane so I have a very shallow saddle on my first one, but your video was very helpful. Also, on your Dutch Tool Chest, did you put hinges on the fall front? That's a great idea!

Glad you liked it! I had trouble with that same part of the book. I do better when I can see stuff. I did add hinges to the front of the DTC. I knew if I did not I would keep misplacing it.

Impressive.....

Fun build. But that back 3rd leg. The Feng Shui of where it points, just makes me uncomfortable. The energy flow, you know ;-) Haven't tried chairs or stools myself. Still intimidating.

I was really intimidated by chairs as well. Once I got in to it they became fun.

Fantastic work. I've just finished a pair of the four legged version. You're much more of a perfectionist than me! Do you think the tapered tenon cutter is worth it? I cut mine on the lathe and it didn't seem too difficult to match the mortice. I went for milk paint too, it's nice

Thanks! If you have a lathe I don't think you need the tenon cutter. I don't have a lathe so the tenon cutter has been a big help.

What kind of wood did you use? Popular and oak? I'm starting mine next week yours came out awesome.

The seat is poplar and the legs are red oak. Let me know when you finish yours. I would like to see some photos. Thanks for watching!

Very cool How long did it take, from start to finish?

@EricMeyerMaker

3 жыл бұрын

I spent about 24 hours on it. 18 building it and 6 on the finish. Having a spoke shave would have cut down on some of that time. Getting fair curves without it was time consuming.

great work. how thick is the seat stock you start with? 12/4?

@EricMeyerMaker

Thanks! I used 8/4 poplar.

Seeing this makes me think I could have a go, and maybe get one made too. What do you use at 11:12?

Making is the easy part, selling makes things a bit trickier. I'm setup to make more, but I don't think I will be pursuing it aggressively. I am trying to break into the tool market. I'm gearing up to start making handplanes in 2023.
