Queen Anne Chair Building Process by Doucette and Wolfe Furniture Makers

Chair making video. This video shows the making of a set of Chairs that are reproduced from an original Queen Anne Chair attributed to William Savery of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania around 1750. www.doucetteand... These Chairs are handmade and shaped using a variety of hand tools similar to how the originals would have been made. The seat is a hand twisted, natural cat tail rush seat that is made and weaved as they originally were. The chairs are made of solid maple with very light figure to match the original.
At Doucette and Wolfe Furniture Makers we make fine custom and reproduction furniture to order with a focus on quality and a meticulous attention to detail. We combine those attributes with the finest hardwoods available today on each and every piece of furniture we make. Visit our website for more information.

Very impressive! Even making one reproduction chair looks hard, but so many and so consistently? That’s real craftsmanship! Very well done! 👍🏻

[@telosfd]

Always a perfect hand made job, it's a victory against factory's junk made furniture.

[@davidcerce]

You’re furniture is the absolute standard! I’ve got to add, that’s the sharpest spokeshave I have ever seen!

[@1949chefjojo]

The fine crafted handmade chairs are built to last throughout generations.

[@johnshirley633]

WOW! That was absolutely fantastic, I am amazed at the craftsmanship and work. Bravo to you!!

You make it all look so easy, the sign of a great craftsman.

[@denisskorski3471]

Thank you! Seeing your video is always like an eating in a fine cuisine restaurant.

[@AndrewKleinWW]

Amazing video and project, I like the fast forward and stop motion techniques that were used to tell the story of the build.

[@johnconklin9039]

Wow, beautiful chairs and an awesome video. Can't imagine how time you spend just sharpening.

[@arslongavitabrevis5136]

Magnificent! Congratulations!

[@neetones]

You are modern masters.

[@matthegedus8249]

Ever since watching and rewatching your videos I've been buying so many spokeshaves! Now I realized I need the large veritas ss and a drawknife too! Thanks for making these videos man.

[@georgebrown6540]

Your videos are fantastic, the most powerful showcase of superb craftsmanship I can remember seeing. People looking for premier furniture would need to look no further. I have nothing to do with the firm other than a stuanch admirer, thanks for sharing.

[@jkr3115]

Your videos are still my favorite things on youtube.

[@oldmanfromscenetwentyfour8164]

A pleasure to watch! Thanks.

[@acraig5075]

Absolutely beautiful. Your spokeshave craftsmanship is astounding.

[@sebastianjakobs2163]

Making Furniture Like A Boss! Absolutly Amazing!

[@Doucetteandwolfefurniture]

Thanks for watching our video! The brass spokeshaves are HNT Gordon, they make high quality hand tools.

[@TheWoodbutcher66]

+Doucette and Wolfe Furniture Makers Is HNT Gordon a US company. Greetings from Scotland.

[@capechronicler]

was there a plastic insert in the spoke shave used about 5 minutes in? If so, was that part of the tool or a shop addition and what was its purpose?

[@whitehurstathome]

I would guess its to keep the shavings from rolling under the spokeshave and stopping the cut.

[@Asimplecraftsman]

I love to go to a class if they offered. I very much admire these people. Thanks for posting

[@MrHoaLuu]

It's just amazing seeing wood forms under your hands. You are truly a Master.

[@rommelpablo1381]

You have in your blood to be craftmanship, excelent work

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Those chairs seem so alive! Excellent job!

[@TheFplopes]

As always, terrific video from D&W. thanks for putting these videos up. They are unique.

Одно из немногих видео когда видишь мастера , которому помогают станки , а не он станкам !

[@paulround8501]

Outstanding work, with stunning results. Everything from joinery to turning is top notch.

[@frederickthompson2697]

Excellent!!!! One of the best building videos I've seen - and delightful background music as well... Thanks.... F.

[@AMonteioism]

The hand work makers they deserve a big one and strong respect. Today everything is machine made.... rubish . It's a great work what you do and you will get the respect from every doby.

[@FletcherHandcraftedGuitars]

Stunning work ! That was a pleasure to watch

[@laurahristo]

I follow them too, what a craftsmanship... I watch few videos a week over and over....

[@seanhenderson8870]

Fantastic video! Your video was as well crafted as your chairs. Great music and a true pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing!

[@HHGdrums]

Thank you. I missed you guys. I always look forward to your videos, and you are master of your trade, very inspiring

[@Fabianorocknwood]

Superb content and work!

[@christocr]

Beautiful work. And these chairs will mean so much more to the future owner than the mass-produced junk made today (at least they should). I know they certainly would for me.

[@solidsnake9332]

Would you rather wait half a year for a set of chairs or have them delivered to your door in a day?

[@christocr]

@@solidsnake9332 That depends on your priorities and what you want. If you want junk, buy junk. That's your choice. I have an original Victorian settee in my living room. Hand made. I wouldn't trade it for a shipload of Walmart furniture. Personally, when I'm ready to buy furniture, I'll save up money and wait/look for a meaningful, quality piece, rather than hitting Walmart. But to each his or her own. Buy what you like. I don't mind the wait.

[@solidsnake9332]

@@christocr you didnt get it? Okay. . . I was just painting the picture of modern consumers for you. Im all for heirloom and classic furniture. They were truly works of art. Now youre quick to judge and placed me in such a category as the modernist consumer, but everyones quick to judge, especially on the internet.

[@MinaBassilious]

This is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@GlassImpressions]

I would love a tour of your sharpening station!

[@miljanc]

Beautiful, thank you for the video.

[@sarullowoodworks4795]

Insane as always. Bravo Matthew.

[@Daniel-rb6vu]

notice they don't use sandpaper..those plain and chisel blades are "WICKED SHARP"!! the cut they deliver needs no further work..great vids..love them..im a 40 year furniture maker and can appreciate the level of craftsmanship your on..im subed

[@TitusLivy777]

I'm really grateful you take the time to document your craftsmanship. Over the long run, this information may be even more important than the work you produce. It would be even better if you included (in the video's description) a list of the tools you used.

[@laius6047]

as a matter of fact most crafstmen were very secretive. It's not peoples right to know how things are done :) he learned it from somewhere and it's his choice to share it or not :) maybe when hes older he will feel regret that he will take the knowledge to the grave

[@AtifHasanReflections]

You are an amazing artist man!!!

[@AlanVelascoEscorcia]

Beautiful job

[@Scomelbasses]

Amazing as usual!

[@joew694]

Would you consider doing a video on your sharpening method and plane setup/technique? I realize that there are a lot of videos on those topics however, you clearly have mastered sharpening and hand tool use. I can assure you that the community would appreciate it. Thanks!

[@oleksiypokotylo7323]

Amazing! Thank you wery much!

Beautiful and visual hands on poetry

[@pagnicinematography]

I would say that you sure got your money's worth out of that spokeshave. Beautiful work on the chairs and the video!

[@TheOomgosh]

That is amazing work! I am sure you are not earning enough for the work you do.

[@Pyroesuna]

I think even more amazing than the final product is the amount of patience that must need to be cultivated and the love for your craft you must have to be able to do all that. How many hours of work would all those chairs take?

[@superpickle1113]

Very impressive!

I love watching your videos, just pure haven to hand tool workers and lovers! I noticed you chisel bevel is a complete mirror, and your tools cut so beautiful. Could you share which stones you use and\or any other sharpening tip you might deem important?

[@Teleman01]

Nice! That must have taken forever to finish all of those!

[@phooesnax]

WOW. I am always amazed. SO much to comment on. hat round faced plane, the unique steady rest on the lathe. Tremendous work. Aside from the band saw it was done the same way as the original. Maybe they had a water powered band saw then?

[@Avibeagle]

I always look forward to seeing these types of videos showing your craftsmanship but they never show any of the finishing process. Do you do your own finishing or is it sent out?
