My Table Saw For Safety and Performance

The RAS 115 Grinder and Dust Extraction are used to do the heavy sculpting and keep me healthy!

The matched set of router bits used to make the signature seat to leg joinery are a must.

I depend on my router table for perfect joinery. Kreg's is the best!

For Crafters of Sculptured Furniture

Watch My Interview with Michel Auriou

 

We had a lot of fun shooting an interview with Michel Auriou at WIA. He is the great French rasp maker. Michel showed us how he raises "stitches" (the teeth on a rasp).

Then I show the method for rounding over using a rasp.

Popular Woodworking's WIA 2011 was a Hit!

Sculptured woodworking was alive and well at WIA. My classes were well attended with eager woodworkers who wanted to learn how to build a sculptured rocker. The "Sculpture That Rocks" booth had many visitors to meet Mark McGowan, Ian Grundner and myself in the booth.

My original DVD bundle teaches the construction of the rocker. This companion video teaches the art of carving a beautiful organic rocking chair. Using lively, tight video shots with rich explanations, I break down the 1 hour and 50 minutes of instruction into four parts:

  • Identification of the hand and power tools that I use
  • Analysis of all of the rocker's lines and surfaces in three views
  • How to sculpt the individual parts of the rocker
  • How to fair the parts together for that flowing monolithic look.

I will teach you to sculpt furniture and help you make your rocker a true work of art to be enjoyed for years to come.
