Chair Making with Philip Morley

Designed with a Mid Century flair but supremely comfortable, this chair is an excellent way to both develop your woodworking skills and make a statement in your home. Designed by Philip Morley – your instructor, you’ll find yourself learning about traditional joinery and careful craft and unique design touches.

This build will help you focus on accurate layout, careful measurement, and the use of templates for pattern routing.

Some of the key learning points include:

Making bridle and mortise & tenon joints
Handtool use – spokeshaves and hand planes
Using templates and jigs for pattern routing
Power tool techniques such as coping on the table saw
Design features such as decorative veneering of the panels
