This year, I finally decided to take on a Maloof-Inspired Sculpted Rocker and we’re building it right now in the Guild: thewoodwhispererguild.com/pro...
One of the most elegant parts of the chair is the contoured back, consisting of seven sculpted spindles. In this video, I show you exactly how I shape those spindles using two rasps.

Small Modeler’s Rasp (7″, #13) www.highlandwoodworking.com/au...
If you’re looking for a nice “starter set” try this Auriou Rasp Set: www.highlandwoodworking.com/au...
Keep in mind, Auriou rasps are pricey and there are other brands out there like Nicholson that could save you a few bucks: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006...
The final detail I put on the spindle is a sculptural one: a round tenon. The end of the spindle is worked to a rough square first, then a rough cylinder. I then use Veritas Tenon-Cutters (1/2″ and 3/8″) to create a perfect round tenon: www.leevalley.com/US/wood/page...
