Rocker with Afrormosia wood

By Zimmermann17, member Aug 10, 2016

I do this “Afrormosia ” wood rocker with”Wenge” wood as insert in laminated rocker.Afrormosia is an african teack. Natural color very pleasant, but after 3 months become as dark as walnut. I never comeback to this wood. It’s produce an very important amount of very fine dust very toxic, in every corner of shop, even with good ceiling filter. As usual 3° reverse front leg, anatomical rear leg junction. Well balanced with 1,4 coefficient. 7 layer finition. 3 danish Oil, 3 oil-wax, ending with carbamax. 200 hours work , oups!
