We are having our annual contest at our club. It is due for the February meeting. The person that won last year gets to pick, he picked a lamp. I thought I would try a basket illusion. This is the base. I am going to do a flower pattern. I added a basket weave around the bottom to make it look more finished. The base is around 10”.

I was perusing websites for Green Woodworking tonight, and through links and resources I came across this wonderful short film about chair-maker Lawrence Neal. I have been becoming familiar with the woodworker's of the U.K and Europe over the last year or so, through research and contacts and a couple hand tool purchases shipped to me from "over there". The woodworking skill and art in that part of the world is wonderful, the Green Woodworking culture has taken off like a firestorm over there in the last decade among the youth and middle aged, and of course bodgering in the U.K is where it all started. The craft has come back in a big way, and it's really nice to see folks just working the wood, simply, and with just a few tools. Although chair-maker Lawrence Neal has more than just a "few tools, he does have quite the simple shop. So, hope you like this lil film, it's relaxing, and interesting I feel.

From the album: Shaker Furniture
Once about half the seat is completed, the weave start getting really tight, and the roll of cloth tape will no longer fit between the weaves, so I made this shuttle from some of the scrap cherry I had on hand. It's about 3/16" thick, by about 8" long and 1.5 inches wide with a taper on the end. -

Woodworker's Journal Video (Weaving a Shaker Seat)
John Morris posted a topic in General Woodworking
As I ramp up for my shaker chair building, I am getting excited over some of the processes of this project. Weaving the seat is one of them. I am going to weave a few of them, then I'll pass that duty on to my younger daughter, she loves this type of craft. Anyway, I just thought it a fun video to watch, either that or I'm getting old and boring Keep an eye out for the cool shaker chair vise! Here is a plan for it. http://www.woodworkersjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/Shaker-Weaving-Vice-Drawings.pdf- 4 replies
