Went up to Belfast ME. for break fast and happened across this photo op

carving project


here is what we did for a carving project
the design was up to the student and this is what i came up with
and yes it is a damsel in distress mirror

Chair project

Here is the Mock up in poplar
with a school provided seat to test comfort ect
Only one half of the chair is shaped
so that you can get an idea of what the parts come out of

Arm shaping detail

Once I had the mock up worked out I did a full size drawing
Using parts of the mock up
Then i laid out the parts for the real thing on the selected timber
in this case I used walnut
and had the bright idea to make two
next time i have a bright idea slap me!
here are the parts and the working drawings
