Name: John Richards City: Hickory State: NC County: Burke Join Date: Oct 2005 Age: 33 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.07 over 30 days | Well, today as a long hard day for the students and the teacher. It began at about 8:45 this morning and finished up around 7:30 pm. The guys made leaps and bounds towards getting their chairs done. They came with a seat blank and some lumber and had somewhere to sit by the end of the day.
Here you can see the guys taking a well earned rest. The rocker I'm making is to the right of Steve, but I was taking the picture.  What you are seeing is 3/4 of the chair jointery complete. It was a good day for progress. They have gone home with assigments to carve out the seat, and design their arms and crest rail.
After we got Steve on the road to fight the weather we glued up the first rocker. Here is brandons after a lot of twisting on those clamp handles. 
So I'll include some action photos....
Wew, I'm going to go take a rest....
Thanks,
John
