I should have been posting here but forgot. I’m taking a chair making class in Maine with Peter Galbert! I’m on day 3, so here’s a picture from each day #woodworking
And here are some other pictures I should have shared along the way #woodworking
first pic here is Peter being annoyed by a bit being dull so walking over to sharpen it for 20s (not exaggerating) second is the drive in yesterday #woodworking
Day 5. Most parts go back in the kiln so they will be dry before they go into their mortises, and swell as they come up to typical humidity, locking them in place. Note also the requisite blood sacrifice has been made. #woodworking
I have lost track of days. Maybe day 6? #woodworking
Tomorrow we fit the rockers. #woodworking
Before fitting rockers #woodworking
After fitting rockers. #woodworkers
Packaged and ready to check 🫡 #woodworking
TSA didn’t trust my box. I made it into a kiln. #woodworking
Stage 1. Would have liked to do stage 2 tonight but I gotta start winding down #woodworking
@frew so the gummy bears are solidified… BLO? something else?
@trs hide glue made out of gelatin etc! I can share a recipe if you ever want to make it
@frew @trs LOL this is how rumors of Jolly Rancher sour apple glue being the best begin
@xabean @trs this glue was developed with actual flavored gummy bears so you’re not wrong!
