Fret work benches & chairs

I love this when i first saw it. Twenty different things popped into my head. What kind of wood, what other patterns could i use, what other things could i implement the schoolwork in etc.. Now putting that aside i absolutely love what you have done. My mother would be proud to ask the preacher over and have a glass of iced tea. Great work. Some thing that looks like that has such grace. Thank you for sharing.

Those are really neat designs. I have always liked fret work. What type of wood and finish do you use on them. Great build.

Fantastic work, do you cut it out on a regular scroll saw or a bandsaw?

Thank you. After I sketch it on paper I glue it to a piece of 1/2” plywood then I cut it out on the scroll saw. Then I take the scroll saw template and I make a pin router template out of 3/4” plywood and keep the scroll saw template as my master. With the pin router template I can cut out thousands of pieces that all come out the same. For production, thats what I do for every design. For you guys that do not know what an inverted pin router is check out www.cronsrude.com . I have model 36210, 3phz power, 10 hp motor It is a great tool to duplicate flat parts. For what i do It is faster than a CNC because I don’t have to wright a program.

-- Have a great day.
