A very nice looking set- well done.

By golly, Schroeder, they came out as good or better than you promised. Really fine and it looks like you have a happy client. Great.

Since I am new at this and always will be, how many hours did this project take? I know thing get easier and faster when you do the same projects but all of the one of a kind I see here seems like many hours of fun. And the results are nothing short of fantastic. The idea, drawing, plans, purchasing, tools, handwork, it not endless but for a new comer its seems like a long journey

Absolutely superb, Schreoder!

Thanks all! – it has been great fun and good experience to delve into the professional arena. My wife is such a sweety; she is all support for me in the shop. And again, I just can’t tell you the respect I have for those who make their living with woodworking/cabinetry – You earn your money! Sales, pricing, accounting, marketing, timing and finding time to be in the shop –wow – lotsa work!

The clients loved the chairs, bought the table and (I think) fit very well in their home. The thing I’ve found interesting (but really just exposed a weird quirk of mine) is no one really wants to hear the detail of the craftsmanship. No one really cared about the specific – the quarter sawn on all four faces of the legs, the fitting of the tenons – all that stuff we love – most people just feel the buttons on the arms, look at the “galactic scheme” of the thing and they either love them or not.

Anyhow, thanks for all the support. I have two more just about done, but probably won’t post those as its getting kinda redundant at this point. After nine of these chairs though, I think I have this particular plan wired and would be happy to help if anyone needs it.

Thanks – Schroeder

These are really great! I love this kind of chair. They sure take up some serious real estate in a room I bet!

I would also build those chairs, BUT i dont know four people named Morris.
