Description
To most woodworkers, chairmaking is both fascinating and intimidating, with its challenges of design, complex joinery and materials. This book covers the skills and design factors by breaking the project into manageable tasks, with sections on tools, jigs, tips and special techniques.
After a discussion of the basics and a fascinating gallery of color photographs of classical and contemporary chairs, Miller develops seven elegant chair projects, with full directions, black-and-white photographs and drawings. They include a child’s ladderback chair, a captain’s chair, a neo-classical chair and a café chair.
