Mike continues making the chair back. He fits the arm rail to the stumps and cuts out the hand scrolls. He drills the spindle holes.
Check back every Tuesday for new episodes!

This series is pure gold. Mike started discovering and refining Windsor chairmaking when almost nobody else was. He has taught thousands of people to make chairs. All of his students went home with a chair. The contemporary chairmakers are standing on his shoulders. Watching these videos is like taking one of his classes at the Windsor Institute, maybe without the corny jokes and gentle ribbing. He has refined his processes over the years, stripping it down to the efficient and effective. All chairmakers should start here. 87th K/W

Again great video. More changes - I remember squaring the arm and thicknessing it with hand planes and doing the bow with just draw knife and spoke shaves. The newer method seems to make it too easy. But, I'll take it as it seems to make it easier and faster and a little more forgiving. Now to change my class notes. I do wish I was there to take another class. I really miss the camaraderie and the class structure.

Another great video Mike. These are really a great tool to add to the arsenal. Front is back, back is front! How did I forget? This was the point in chair making where you shared the "condom" trick with me. Lots of great memories of learning at the Institute.

Thanks again Mike for a very informative video,I have to admit the Front is back and back is front as a golden rule is confusing to me.given the angle that's filmed out I couldn't quite see what you were pointing to. given my dyslexic aproach to things even with a drawing I may not get it.

Mike; where can the reamer that you use be purchased?

Four years too late; I hope you found one. If not, a 1:8 and 1:7 is a commonly available reamer as it is the same taper as many light truck and jeep tie rod ends. You can even find them on amazoni with a 1/2” shank. You merely have to assure that your spindle master patterns and leg patterns are representative of the taper of whatever reamer you acquire. Veritas from Lee Valley is 6.4*, others are 6*, 9*, with one chair bit stating, “12 degree included angle” which in chair-speak is 6* Hopefully I got that all right as I went from memory and it’s late do I’m sitting here doubting myself. Either way, you can make your own reamer or several at whatever angle you wish. Turn a 5-3/4” taper with a 10” long straight spindle on the handle end from ash or white oak. Saw down the center of the taper with a fine coping saw or thin dozuki. Cut and grind the same taper from a six inch steel scraper or even a wide sawzall blade and true it. Burnish the four o’clock and two o’clock edges like a scraper, turning a burr over. Instant homemade taper reamer for wood.
