This week I’ve been very productive. I finished installing the sterling silver in the ebony bars. After that I prepared the surfaces of my parts and rounded over the edges of the rails and mortises. Finally, I cut the housed mortises for the rails and stretchers.
I also show you my new Lie-Nielsen Number 2 Bench Plane and talk about why I bought it and show you how it preforms.

A little late to the party on this project, but it looks like she’s coming along nicely!
This looks like a beautiful chair, but it’s not on my list right now. I’ve never built a rocker before, so I don’t have the right experience to tackle a chair like this just yet!

Dean,
Thanks! You can catch up on the build by watching my weekly shop updates on YouTube.
If you are interested in building the rocker or even the Arm Chair version of this chair, I film these builds and have plans and in-depth step-by-step instructional class videos on my website http://www.mmwoodstudio.com
