Trying to fit in as much as possible into the year at Rowden and dealing with all the other things going on meant that blogging never became the regular thing that I had hoped it would last year.
I completed the course at the end of November 2010 having extended my stay a month to complete my final project; the Genkan Table and finished with three personal pieces in addition to the student projects, workbench and jewelry box required to be completed during the course.
Having taken a couple of months off to sort out a few things that have been put to one side during the last few months of the course I have now moved to a new workshop and made a start on another chair. This one will be in white oak with a woven seat and use Domino joinery in contrast to the Parnham Joints used in Chair 1.0 which I'm hoping will be a lot quicker.
Rear legs, front legs, and front and back rails are cut and shaped with the side rails due to be made this week. I'm fitting a number of new techniques and materials into this one and hoping to have it ready for a dry fit by the end of the week for a quick photo.
