Windsor Chair
This is one of six Windsor chairs I built completely out of red oak. I got the plan from Drew Langsner’s book The ChairMaker’s Workshop. Not a true Windsor in the purest sense because the entire chair is made out of red oak but that’s the wood I had lying around at the time so I used it. I built six of them at once for a dining room table set I was making.

the chair is fantastic. it looks verry clean. i was curiouse if you painted the chair or did you use an iron buff soloution to ebonize it? what ever you did it came out extremely well. looks great
Thanks! I finished it with green stain when I built the chairs but later painted them black to match the the ver changing decor of the dining room.
Very nice work. My spouse has informed me she wants six of them. I hope mine turn out as well as yours did.
Hi Billy, making the six chairs at once was by far the biggest project I ever worked on. There were chair parts everywhere in my shop! However, when I made all the same parts at one time, I discovered that they became much faster and easier to make once I knew what I was doing.
