Love it! A crochet hook might help pull the twine through as you weave.

I just got myself a Suizan ryoba saw. It will take a while to get used to it. Video is a great help thanks. Mine has a thin plastic bag like cover over the ratten covered handle. Do you know if I'm supposed to leave it there or is it just for packing?

I have made all sorts of things out of wood with WoodPrix plans. Sheds, garage doors, chairs, tables, etc. I've even made a fence and raised beds with these plans. They even have plans like bird feeders there. The selection is overwhelming

Great job!

How did you attach the dowel to your drill? I always find that is the hard bit.

Probably my favorite chair build I've seen, thank you! I'm curious to know which you prefer to sit in between the wood and woven seats?

Super awesome chair! I've been needing to make some Stools recently and also wanting to make some chairs. I really like the woven seat! I think I'm going to do that instead of having to carve out a large seat. I can't wait to see how you continue to improve on this design! I would love to know some of the overall dimensions that you ended up setting on?

Superb

another great video! thank you. the design reminds me of a stickley side chair (Gustav and L&J both made them). Particularly the square posts. They are often done in leather. It's a matter of taste but you might have a look at those chairs up close and experiment with less sanding of corners, leaving the arises a bit more sharp to catch the light. Beautiful seat you got there.

David, you made it look simple and it turned out great. Thanks so much for posting the build.

Great work, David! Just banging out chairs now!

That's a beautiful chair! I think I'd just buy the dowels since turning them with that jig seemed like a lot.

Awesome job sir

Thank you for your valuable information! I’m currently building my first workbench (a low Roman bench) and am interested in adding a shave horse attachment so your setup looks like what I need. However, I tried to access the free ebook and it is no longer a good link. Can someone help with this?

I have watched a couple of your episodes and have subscribed. You are very good at demonstrating how to use the bench and not just how to make it. Well done. I am from Concord New Hampshire USA, were you from. I am guessing Wales?

I don’t have a frame saw yet but this seems better from an ergonomic standpoint, a little less awkward and more efficient. Thanks for sharing your ideas Dave.

Just yesterday I got reminded why you never use the other hand to hold behind the workpiece 😂

If you have space to sit a shave horse then a spokeshave would be another way to cut this & you’ll love using it for odd shaped pieces 👍

Messing around with this chair design, I wanted this to be a quick, simple build, no bending & with kilin dried wood. I still have to round over the corners, & make the back rest, but I'm making good time #woodworking #woodwork #chairmaking

Get your camera right.

woooow. great idea. thanks for sharing

Hi David. Watching the whole way through, the shape and style grew on me. Only thing that looks a little out of proportion for me is the size of the back rail and agree that an extra inch or so would fix that. It looks great and valuable experience was gained. For projects I'm not sure about, creating a storyboard on a piece of mdf helps me (even if a just for a part of the project). Thanks for taking the time to put the video together, it's not often I watch an entire 38 minute one :)

Cheers mate !

I will not criticize. I like it, as it is. It's not perfect ? Ok, I am not perfect either. Merry Christmas.

Hello David agree that the top rail needs more depth. Legs I think need to be thinner or top spindles need to be thicker. I like the stretcher hight low, have a habit of resting my heels on them. I have haven't made a chair yet but do have a low roman bench and a single seat bench with splayed legs so know the trouble of getting them right Stretchers also need to be thicker if legs staying that size. If doing another one then keep it the same or just make another pair.

Dude, just seeing the first few minutes amazes me. Holding the work piece in so many ways, using hand tools - just great stuff!

Gracias por subir el vídeo sobre esta herramienta yo la compré

Not bad mate. Good job.

Hi! Was the finish just linseed oil? Or tung oil?

Very informative build, thank you !

Thanks for sharing.

Lovely, thank you.

Beautiful work!

Nicely done. I particularly like your rounding jig

Thanks, the chair looks great! One question. With the way the legs are angled and fixed to the base, do you think the stretchers are adding much in the way of extra strength?

Well done!

Great video Dave, it demystifies the whole process. I always like to see the Kanna in action, looks like you’ve got it down pat. Thanks for sharing this!

Everything in this video is awesome!

I become Ur fan sr, ur back yard is superb, u😊 I watch ur video, learning from you sir

Gotta trust the work crocs Nice jig though

It's great to see someone doing this all with hand tools. Inspiring work, Dave!
