Hi Tom thanks for sharing all your videos! I'm following your process to make a chair from a recently felled Ash here in Oxfordshire, UK. I've successfully split out the rough components and steam bent the rear posts. Question is, how to know when they are all dry enough to carry on making? Do you use a moisture meter? Again, thanks so much for all your work.

Hi Tom, I’ll try to keep this short. Firstly thank you for all the videos you’ve made. I just found your KZfaq channel the other day and have been watching all the how to make a chair series from about three years ago, really great. Some years ago I purchased Drew Langsner’s book “The Chairmakers Workshop”, there’s a picture of your three slat chair in there that I always really loved and wondered who you were. Well now I know who you are and am very thankful for the instruction you’ve given on that particular chair. I have built a number of Windsor chairs after some instruction from Curtis Buchanan but would now like to try some ladder backs. After all these years it’s nice to finally put a face to the maker of the chair I saw in Drew’s book. Maybe we’ll meet someday, until then, I wish you the very best and thank you again for the information. I posted on these comments because I didn’t expect you see it if I posted on the comments from 3 years ago. Bruce 🇨🇦

Thanks so much for sharing. Looking forward to getting one built. Stay well, my friend

Thanks for your sharing. I think its time to build one and get to start the steam bending experiments. Hope to make chairs with steam bending back posts in 2024.

Thanks for taking the time to post another video. If you find the time could you post something about the construction and dimensions of your steam box... thanks and heal well.

I think you did give all the information on the shaving horse videos, if I recall correctly. Those were the first videos I saw on your channel. I missed out on buying a kit- but I’ll go back to see them bcuz I’m pretty sure you explained everything. I certainly hope you mend and heal soon and make some chairs!

Thanks Tom

So wonderful to watch you work!

I hope it becomes an beautifull peace of sometthing Evan

I’m Glad the video worked out!!

You're making me want to buy another log to split for more parts. Thanks for everything.

Looks like some good working oak.Thanks

And just like that, a chair rung is made! Amazing! And thank you for the information on the drawknife- I learned a lot from this video! 🙏🌟👍

You always make it look easy. Glad to see you in the shop.

As someone new to woodworking- this is so interesting! Thank you for sharing! 🙏🌟👍

Looks like ya'll had a great time. wish I could have made it. Thanks

Thanks for filming and sharing this Tom. It was a pleasure meeting you at the get together. Your love for this craft was obvious and your story about how you started making chairs and the people who inspired you was very moving. Hope we cross paths again. Best, Chuck

Just finished your chair video series. It was excellent. I really enjoyed the ideas to use joiner, planer and bandsaw in the process. I have started doing that as well in my efforts. I have made several post and rung stools and am now working on a chair. Over the past 2 years I have taken classes at JCCFS. Hope you teach one in the future Thanks again for all your videos. They are a fantastic. I used your videos to make my shaving horse in the past I will soon watch the rocking chair series Thanks again

Glad to see you getting back in the shop more.

I love the smell of freshly split oak in the morning. It smells like...victory.

Splitting wood like a pro.

Your making it look easy Tom 😅

Looks like you're gonna be busy splitting. Hope to see you soon.

Hope to see you this summer!

Hi Tom, just found your channel and am glad I did. Nice design, looks well made.

Hey there,a little safety advice, never hit a splitting maul with a sledge, the splitter can fragment and severely injure you. Use a wedge and sledge.

Looking good man. Always good to save some chair wood from the chipper. Have fun in Berea.

I’m glad to hear that this event is happening. I was hoping to be able to get out there for it, to meet you and other makers, but the round trip airfare is just too much. Also, Tom, I’m still working on the plans for your shaving horse. Not as much spare time to work on it lately. Stay well my friend.

Congratulations on the upcoming event! I will be purchasing the book soon! It’s good to see you in the workshop talking about chair making and wood working!

Congratulations on being featured in the book! Question for you - I would love to purchase a shave horse kit from you - any chance that could happen? I’m building my first timber frame cabin and I’m short on time. Let me know - thanks!

i thought you said kester sticking out

✔️ 'Promo sm'

I just got the book and found your channel from it. Great stuff Tom!

How you doing Tom, I would like to ask you if you make and sell a rocking chair.

Congratulations! 🎉

Congratulations Tom. I plan on ordering the book soon.

Congratulations Tom! Glad you are featured in the book.

I read about you in the book! Next one I buy will be Drew’s book. Lost Art Press is awesome.

Congratulations Tom!

This is very helpful. Thanks for sharing

Tom. Really pleased to hear that your health is good. Great idea to do knitting and love the hats.

Try hornbeam if you get the chance. When it dries out, your maul just bounces off it. Its worth it because the wood puts out some serious heat. Better than white oak.

Beautiful scenery. Wish I were there. Thanks

Snowy mountain road- makes me think of a Bob Ross painting with happy little trees! 😆 Thank you for this! Did you find out who made the footprints?
