Project of no return.

Morris Chair.
Been there, did two, amazed it worked.
Now being retired and needing to supplement my wood habit I turned to furniture 'hooking'. It's not a bad deal since we've no more room for pieces unless I replace what was done before.
This blog is about building two Morris Chairs for barter. Our friend is a hair dresser and over the past few years I've made several custom pieces ( large sofa table, end tables, large coffee table) from cherry and mesquite. These were good projects until she visited and fell in love with our Morris chairs. Now, she wants to jewel in the crown project of two chairs of cherry with mesquite trim.
I've a plan from woodsmith. Looks okay but…. Found a good source of cherry and have enough mesquite for trim.
All I need now is to start up the river of darkness.
