By shrlok, member Sep 22, 2013

Sculpted Dining Chair using Walnut & Curly Maple

Designed and built as a client prototype, this chair design has quickly become a hit with anyone who finds them self taking one for a test drive.

The seat is hand sculpted using a Kutzall solid carbide shaping wheel, back braces are bent laminated into the perfect lumbar support while being made beautiful with a highlight of Curly Maple.

The legs are attached with a Maloof joint, allowing for a beautiful yet strong joint that will last for generations.
