    Andrew.. The chair coming out very elegant and beautiful. I just saw the glass window in your posted picture and found pine trees, i imagine a beautiful landscape out there. You are lucky man.
    I left woodwork due to office work.

    Thanks! Yes, the scenery out the windows is pretty here. Especially if you like spruce and pine trees

    I got the rockers shaped and glued on! The end is near....

    Well, the rocker has been shaped, finish sanded and oiled. Spent another two 1/2 hours on it this morning. Decided to get it out of the way as the rest of the week is going to be spraying, sanding and running millwork (busy, busy!)

    Hope you like it.. really enjoyed building it and man it is kind of a let down to be finished. I really enjoy the process of the build the most.

    Now onto the mahogany dining chairs!

    Man that is a work of art Let me ask a dumb question...why are the rockers extra long? I don't know why you don't consider putting together some type of weekend or week long class to teach some of this...

    So when you get a little crazy, you won't flip over backwards!

    It's just the design of the rocker. They look great in person, not abnormally long.

    As for teaching, that's not my real strong trait. Plus I am too busy working

    And yes I wear my hat every day, and my work shirts too proudly
