Windsor Chair

[dancan]

I don't know if this Youtube series of videos has been posted but I found this one to be an excellent series on building a chair from start to finish with lots of explaining and info through the series on wood , woodworking , tools and tool use and why he does it like he does as the series continues .

I called him this evening to thank him for posting , he said it was repayment to the fellow that taught him how to make chairs 30 yrs ago and gave him all the plans for 0$$ .

Superb, Love how people do this to keep the craft alive, and for a change share their skills so selflessly
but then again it happens allot in the traditional crafts now a days, I like it,
Thanks for posting I will cherish it in my collection
Yours sincerely Ruud
