@pkinneb, with that explanation I am even more impressed. I always assumed the spindle was two pieces. That is difficult to turn (good thing you've got that new lathe ). What makes the birdcage style chair more difficult? -

Thanks Coop! Yes they are one piece which to be honest you are right it was no easy feat. You have a several things going on the different angle for nearly every hole, controlling the drill to get a clean hole, and probably the hardest thing getting the spindles shaped to a specific size for nearly 12 inches. Its all doable with a little practice but I would be lying if I didn't say I was sooo done with drilling holes by the time I got to the top bow. Ultimately it was a fun but challenging project. I have to finish up several projects that I have started but this fall I hope to make one of the harder Windsor chairs i've seen called the bird cage arm chair. -
@pkinneb, the arm rest that continues around the back, are the spindles one piece and go thru it or are they two pieces and terminate in that back piece? Having seen your amazing work, I suspect they are one piece and if so, you did a great job in drilling the tight angled holes. I’m sure that was no easy feat! -
I try to store deck screws, bolts inn1/4 and 5/16 and accessories many for the exterior projects and jigs, but having something for everything is impossible.
