Very nice! I've made a couple of highchairs and you're right, those 7° cuts will drive you crazy.

Looks great!  This must have been a satisfying project knowing the end placement. Still waiting on the day I'm informed on the arrival of a rug rat but then I may take you up on the plan offer. | |

Nice job on the high chairs Mark! A bunch of 7 degree cuts?  Looks like you did them well!

Great job, Mark!!!!
Look like they are strong enough to span a couple of generations.
They will be easy to keep clean too! (Our four daughters used a high chair primarily made from turned spindles and man was that a trip to try and keep looking crisp and clean!  That porridge sticks like Titebond glue!!! )
Great work!
Wayne

Thank you all for the kind words. In all honesty, if it were not for this site, I may have given up on woodworking some time ago but you all have either inspired me or made me believe better of me than i did of myself. I'm glad to be back in the fold and sharing this stuff with you all. | |

What was so difficult with the 7 deg cuts?
What was your setup? | |

Joe,
I really did not have a "set up" for these cuts. I took a large piece of cardboard and created a 7 degree right triangle. I then used the cardboard triangle to set my cross cut fence and started wacking away at boards. A few had to be reangled after an initial cut to make it fit. Fun stuff. | |
