Wow, I am always amazed at these sculptured rockers. Every one is slightly different and really reflects the craft-person's eye, but all are soooo cool :icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum
Beautiful wood and work...now it's time to sit a spell:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap
Some day!!!!!!!!!!!!..................maybe I'll have the nerve to try somethin" like that..........naw.....Haven't got the nerve!!!:nah: (Still trying to make square boxes!:BangHead
I have to admire the craftsmanship and the great job you did with this one!!:wsmile::wsmile:
Wow! I think you need to add "Craftmanship by Raymond".
The figure is spectacular and the contrasting wood (or sapwood:mrgreen is a nice touch. Oh yeah, the pics are nice too :icon_thum
Raymond-
Gorgeous rocker! Well done. How are Hal's plans to work with? Also-about how long did it take you to complete the rocker? I've seen touchwoods-Dino's-john's and now yours and I'm getting the bug pretty bad. Thanks-and again wonderful job-happy rocking! -- Mike

Thanks a lot. Hal does a good job with his plans and follows up with as much advice as you need. I made a trip to Touchwood's place before I started to see a chair and get a feel for what was involved. He helped a lot as well. I had let the Claro Walnut dry from Feb. 2007 to Feb. 2008 inside an air-conditioned shop before I started. It took me three months part time with a week off for an appendectomy. You should try it. It is very satisfying. RaymondP
WOW!!! I have the plans from Hal Taylor and the walnut to do it, just haven't had the time. THe walnut looks more "formal" than I would have expected. Still, it is outstanding!
