Shaker rocking chair
Oct 02, 2008
This chair was based on a FWW article by Ernie Conover. It was first attempt at making a chair, and the learning curve was incredibly steep. I opted for back splats rather than a taped back, and I made the piece from ash rather than maple. Most of the components are lathe-turned from ash. The back legs and back splats were steam bent. The seat is woven with traditional shaker tape. Finish is a couple of coats amber paste wax.
