As this is progressing, I'm feeling fairly comfortable with the stock's ability to hold up -- I've even found some grain that curves in a convenient fashion around the leg.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03042590412023915722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951405337023506146.post-91084137407795812312011-01-23T16:59:13.218-05:002011-01-23T16:59:13.218-05:00http://www.finewoodworking.com/SkillsAndTechniques...http://www.finewoodworking.com/SkillsAndTechniques/SkillsAndTechniquesPDF.aspx?id=30240Pablohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17983044576597452579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951405337023506146.post-4922917526780282652011-01-23T16:56:34.509-05:002011-01-23T16:56:34.509-05:00You could laminate the curve with tapered laminati...You could laminate the curve with tapered laminations or you could also make a non structual curved core and laminate to the finished dimensions to avoid lamination run out. If you are aiming for a non painted finish your plan A sounds the best. Aren't deadlines motivating and exciting!Pablohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17983044576597452579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951405337023506146.post-28851282945132384342011-01-21T13:59:03.894-05:002011-01-21T13:59:03.894-05:00Jeff-

In the places where I know I want the line to cross I glue down a block and clamp with spring clamps. I just trace these outlines in pencil, go to the bandsaw, cut, then sand with a flexible sanding stick.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03042590412023915722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951405337023506146.post-64239335633008673002011-01-21T13:12:02.574-05:002011-01-21T13:12:02.574-05:00Bless you for making chairs.

Like you, I would have to give them some serious thought.<br /><br />What are you using to draw the subtle curves in the fourth photo? They seem to be too precise to be free handed.Jeff Branchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402561454519694074noreply@blogger.com
