I had several question come up after the original video was published, that I thought were good ones that also correspond with the video footage I had that didn’t make the original cut. So here is a little more information on how I stained and finished the stone, Stained and finished the Mahogany, and built the bent lamination form.
Watch it on YouTube

For this build the client wanted a custom walnut mirror frame built that would look like it is floating off the wall. To accomplish this I made an inset inner frame on the back to make it stand out.I wish I had a better picture of this but the lighting was subpar, along with my subpar photography skills, this is what I got. Watch me build this floating mirror Frame

A quick breakdown for Jim Jakosh and everyone else interested in how I make a skateboard ring
I cut a 3×3 cm blank from the skateboard using the deck’s original thickness.
I then use the scroll saw to cut off the corners and reduce some of the extra wood.
I put the blank on the lathe and get it down to a bit thicker than what the final ring will be, to account for additional finishing sanding. Make sure your chisels are sharp, because if it catches it can take a go...

After many weeks, the bridal joint and holes for the dowels were put into place. Now just time to throw in some glue and screws to put it all together, sand, find a good finish, and get an upholster to sew the pads.

Now all of these parts and pieces are starting to make sense. The slats for the leather pads are biscuited and glued into the arched legs. Unfortunately, the miter at which the back sits on the legs is incorrect so ill have to do some cutting by hand and refine that angle to get the proper reclining slope. The back is screwed through the bottom and a lot of the actual strength of the chair comes from a bridal joint which scissors from the back into the arms. Surprisingly, there are only four ...

I thought this would be a lot more tricky than it turned out to be. Four dowels are placed in the top of the leg and run into the bottom of the arm to make it appear as if the arms are floating. The dowels are 3/8” and are a little longer than an inch. This forms the “lego joint” which is used a few different places on this chair.
