flat arm Morris chair |
|
In this course, you will build your own classic
Flat arm Morris chair as made popular by Gustav Stickley, as you work
side by side with Gregory Paolini. The flat arms are created using a
modified lamination technique that allows for book matched appearence on
the tops of the arms . There will be extensive Mortise and tennon
joinery challenges, including traditional integral tennons; Floating
tennons, and hand cut "through" mortise and tennon joints.
Upholstery and finishing techniques will be reviewed but not applied
during the class. Upon completion of the course, students will have a
chair that is dry fit, together, and ready for sanding, glue up, and
finishing work back at their own home shops. Or students can choose to
have us complete their chair to our museum quality standards by taking
advantage of our completion
service.
Course based on Gregory's article & Video which appeared in Fine Woodworking magazine. This class is limited to only 6 students, so you'll receive lots of instruction & personal attention ! |
