Thanks ! And it’s confortable as it seems. The only one problem is with the time, the cord slackens a bit.

slick!

This will make an excellent outdoors rocker since snow and rain can’t accumulate on the seat and back. Great build. Thanks for sharing!!

Realy beatiful. Strong lines, simple and elegant. And the design is yours? Of so i think you have possibly just made a modern calssic. This just got my “Favorite”

The rockers looks impossibly short. How do you keep it from tipping over?
Just read your blog but my french is not that good and i did not get why you mad a number 2. Please let us in on the process!

Thanks for sharing!

@kaerlighedsbamsen, I was inspired by Josh Shiau work, but I redesign some lines and make it a rocking chair. The main idea is his.

The rockers arms were too small on my #1. This prototype can fall back. Then on #2, longer rockers arms (it’s just enough), higher seat with more open angle, redesign the bar behind the knees to be in flat plan with cords and cut the rocker arm in front for better lines.
I also increase the radius of the rockers arms … but it is not a good idea. Maybe a #3 … ;)

I totally understand why you were inspired by Josh Shiau. Verry simple and i love the ash he used.
That said i think yours have stronger lines and looks like it will age nicer. I allso like the way you made the string for the seat flush with the front style. On Josh´s chair it looks like it could be uncumfertable to sit on the edge.
Again: Great design.
You just inspired me to move on with a project i have pushed in front of me with the exchuse that it will be too dificult to get right. Thanks.
