Walnut seat, arm, and comb with cherry spindles and turnings
I finally decided to tackle a Windsor chair. How'd I do? The only power tool used was the lathe.

John, the chair looks awesome! Very nice job. How long did it take you?
I have been wanting to try building some chairs, but have never done it, and at some point I have to give it a try.
Thanks Marc, It is hard to say exactly how much time. I had to build a shaving horse before I done the spindles. All told I have about 60 hours in it over a period of about a month and a half. Thanks again.
really nice job,looks like a tough assembly.
Dang nice chair, I gotta' say you're quick. I've built chairs before and that puppy would've taken me about two weeks.
Wow, Thanks Jeff! That makes me feel alot better. I thought I would never get the thing done. It actually took less time to built the last morris chair I built. There was a lot more satisfaction with this chair though. I treat the hand work as a kind of therapy. Thanks again for the comment.
JOHN, YOUR CHAIR LOOKS GREAT! AFTER SEEING FRIST HAND THE CABINETS YOU MADE FOR BILL C. MY FRIST IMPRESSION WAS THAT YOU ARE A TRUE CRAFTSMAN. NOW SEEIN THIS I KNOW YOU ARE
