    Thank you for the inspiration. I am not a fan of wood turning but you have awakened an interest in this, all driven by how you stitched the leather. I’m a fan.

      The wood turning was a confusing mix of relaxation and frustration... leatherwork was all joy though, was the most fun part of the project.

    1:54 when grinding, if the tool edge goes blue, (as it has at 1:54) you've overheated it and drawn the temper out. It'll never keep an edge for long now!

    I like what you have done here a lot. You have great skill and patience. I really love the final product. I love using a wax finish too, but i think i would have used a traditional Danish style Soap Finish myself on this. It's very easy to make your own Soap finish. And although it's not highly durable, the feel and look of it is unbeatable (in my opinion) on oak.

  • @samb8414
    @samb8414 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Chris this was an awesome video and I loved seeing you work. You have a natural affinity with the materials and the workspace. I might just recommend lowering the toolrest on the lathe a tiny bit; if your tool catches in the wood up there, it'll go flying into your body and likely do quite a bit of damage! It's good that you're trying to work with new techniques on the tools though and sometimes you have to play with stuff like that! Keep up the awesome work!

    • @KastnerFurniture
      @KastnerFurniture  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @KastnerFurniture
      @KastnerFurniture  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Happy to share! The back legs are 690mm tall, front are 520mm, arms 730mm long, and supports/seat are 560mm wide (plus an extra 10mm or so that slotted into the legs). There are probably some changes I would make if I were to do it again, e.g. make the back a bit taller... I did start with a design in SketchUp which I would share, but I ended up deviating a fair bit from that as I went (judged a lot of the dimensions by eye, and testing it as I went along in terms of the height to put the cross-bars etc.).
      The front and back legs are both angled inwards (i.e. the top of the legs tilt towards the centre of the chair), and the arms tilt down a few degrees. I don't have the exact angles for these, but kinda just did that by laying the side frames out on the ground and did what "looked" good. Guess the trickiest bit was working out the height of the front horizontal support - just made sure that it was lower than where my knees would be with my feet flat on the ground.
      The mortises for all the spindles were a real pain... drilling into a tapered leg with an angled hole, on round stock, was a real challenge!

With my 2 left hands I will use nothing but simple wooden beams in straight corners... I'll also have to replace the leather with two straps, on which I will add smaller wooden planks..
      Can you help me with the height of the leg rest (at the front of the chair, where your knees go), with the depth between the front and the back leg, and.. with the length of the leather? Thank you so much!!!

    I'm sorry to say but its a pretty bad design. You should have used rope or wire for the lower stays, because there is a force pulling them apart and over time the chair will fall apart. I would have funcion and also look better.
