Maple, Pine, and Red Oak Windsor Chair

Ron Ausen
St. Paul, Minn.
Ausen learned how to make a Windsor chair by watching Curtis Buchanan’s YouTube videos. He modified the traditional design with forked back spindles, which fan evenly into the rail, and spindles on the sides that resemble field corn from the farm where he grew up. “Under the handholds are a peace symbol and a smiley face. While sitting, grasp the handrail and press your fingers against these two spots. It then imprints ‘peace and happiness unto you.’” Ausen’s chair was chosen as Best Traditional Piece.
