Walnut Rocker Seat

Featured Replies

I just got out of the shop here, and I finished the prelim cutting of the seat notches.


 


Flattening the seat blank, it had a very slight cup in it.

I also was to get the back brace holes routed in the rear of the seat as well tonight, I used a 1/4" spiral bit and a 1/2" OD guide bushing with a template.

Wow! John, you're moving right along. Looking good. Take lots of pictures of the "scooping out process" Please.

Looking good John. I love to see the progress on the rocker.


 


Keep the pictures coming.

You got it Rich, or should we say the grinding out process! I wish I could tell you I do the romantic way with a chair scoop and all, but it's done with a right angle grinder and disc. Pictures will abound at your request though Rich regardless. Thanks for your interest.
