    A quick forum search for "rocking chair" led to this link to the Vectric forum: http://www.vectric.com/forum/viewtop...=asc&start=180

    Dave,

    Thank you. I have done a search on the ShopBot, Vectric and 100K Garages forums and came up with the same thing.

    The chair is 6 pieces.

    2 Rocking Sides
    1 Seat
    1 Back
    1 Front Rail
    1 Key

    All pieces lock together.

    Thank you,

    Greg

    Default File

    I have an Apsire file I will post. I need to clean it up a bit, as I had a few changes. Give me a couple of days.

    Bob - The first picture is what was brought to me and I was asked to remake it. I spend some time with my students making it. We traced it and then plotted the points. Cut it out, fixed some problems and the newest pictures were the 3rd test cut. I had to replace the back and the seat because I needed to adjust the tongue on the back, which was off.

    3/4" MDF and 1/2" End Mill

    Default Chairs

    Job assembled and ready for the customer. 14 sheets cut out - 2 chairs per sheet. Sheets came in at 9 AM on Thursday, finished by noon on Friday. Took me two more days to round over the 168 parts, both sides, finished on Tuesday. By Thursday, the customer had picked up the parts and delivered to a Special Ed art class in the Chicagoland area.

    Painting was a sample by the teacher. Students painted skylines.

    Originally the goal was to make 60 chairs, but they only had funding for 28. I plan on cutting them out locally for people. Buy one sheet of material, you keep a chair and you give a chair to this class.
