Matt Cremona joined Triton Tools on a week's green woodworking course in the UK. The six day chair making course led by Paul Hayden takes place in the beautiful woods at Westonbirt National Arboretum. Using traditional green woodworking techniques, Matt turned freshly felled ash logs into a Windsor chair that will last for generations.
If you would like to learn how to make a Windsor chair you can pick up Matt's tips from this video or attend the course yourself.

Wow. Respect for early furniture makers before the industrial manufacturing era. True value of the craftsmanship price.

Lol. I just imagined a cartoon of a springpole turner. One normal leg and the other looking like you see on the pro bodybuilders. Great video, I have a shave horse and the other kit But my lathe is modern and electric. Lovely.

Excellent work Matt! An experience you will never forget! One leg should be stronger than the other. Those super jaws are able to do more than I thought. Beautiful chair and very happy Triton gave you the opportunity!

Incredible work the chair looks great. It's kind of funny but I know that feeling because once you start your committed, perfect example I've never done this before but can only imagine. The look on your face was priceless when the back fit into your mortises into the seat. Always love seeing your work.

bigoldkid jumps up and down cheering wildly for Matt --- stops, looks at all the cracks in the pavement --- looks around to see if anyone is watching, and kicks some dirt over the cracks. Then later starts to wonder if England somehow missed a big shipment of electrons or som'n, since they didn't seem to have any 'lectricity for them nice Triton power tools. "Spot of bad luck, old chap," as one might say on that side of the pond. But fortunately, they still had some of them old hand tools laying around from the "days of yore," and Matt still manged to work his wonders with the wood

Good stuff! I was starting to feel bad for triton until the super Jaws got used. I was surprised to not see a froe used to split the wood, or a hewing hatchet.

@mcremona 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks Robert! Paul explained to me that the axe is more approachable for beginners than a froe. The hewing hatchets were available in the chopping area where we were refining the blank before the shaving horse.

Now that would be a fun time, with a bit of work thrown in with tea. I will admit, my first thought was how did you get that home? I know disassembled it made a relatively flat pack. Funny how your mind goes to goofy places at time when I should simply enjoy the video. Thank you for the video

In this style of chair-making, what is the source of the seat wood? Slab of green wood from a large log? Seasoned wood, thinner pieces laminated together?

@jimbo2629 6 жыл бұрын

Do you realise you are now a fully qualified “bodger” ? Great to see you got the angles right. Was that Ash you were using. Traditionally it would have been Elm for the seat and adzed wet as it goes rock hard. No Elm available now after Dutch elm disease. Did you get to the Windsor chair museum in High Wycombe?

Just goes to show how much work they had to do when making things -- before we learned how useful it was to push electrons through long strands of metal, heh. ;^)
