Making a Bent Lamination Chair / Full Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 авг 2020
- A video of making a bent lamination chair. I saw a lot of similar design in metal and decided to try and make one in wood. I started by making a mould for back rest and and seat. I made it from some leftover osb, and plywood as shown in the video. Bottom part of the mould is rigid and keeps it's shape while the top part of the mould is more malleable. I used 5 layers of 1.5mm thin mahogany veneer for the seat and back rest. Glue I used for this part of the project is ordinary vinyl acetate d3 glue. Second part was making mould for the chair structure. I shaped the inner mould from 10x10cm leftovers and fixed it to the plywood board which served as a base. Same mould is used for the legs and arm rests. I cut 2 and 3 mm strips of spruce and sanded them down to final 1.5 and 2.5 mm thickness. Thinner strips are placed as the outer layers of lamination while thicker strips are placed in the center. Thinner strips can withstand sharper bending and protect thicker core from braking. Glue moisturizes them and also helps with bending. For this purpose I use two component melamine glue with long open time of 45 minutes. It takes some time to Spread the glue on so many layers so longer open work time is critical. After drying, I shaped the pieces to final form with power tools, everything is sanded with varying degrees of sandpaper and finally assembled. To join an armrest to the legs part of the chair I used 16mm beech pegs and acetate glue. To join the back rest and the seat to the chair I used decorative screws.
I really hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and don't forget to like and subscribe! :D

It's amazing to watch someone work who knows what they are doing. Great piece man.
I appreciate that! Thank you so much! :D
I never would have thought I'd like mahogany and spruce together, but that turned out fantastic! Thanks for posting this!
Thank you for watching Mark! :D Glad you liked it! I was also skeptical at first but it really turned out better than expected.. I'm now thinking about making 7 more for my future dining table..
This channel reminds me of Archimedes
"Give me enough tools and a shop to use them in, and I shall make the world."
:D Thank you so much! I cant agree more!
This is one of the best things I have ever read, well said
Luka Modric of woodworking!
Great Job!!
:D ahaha! Thank you very much!
Well, that was sad. The poor robot didn't even have anything to do today...
Don't worry, He was busy on another project ;)
You guys can make the wood do anything you want it to do. That was a beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing your impressive skills with us.
Finally, natural sounds on the Lignum channel! Shopsounds are so much better than any music.
WOW, you have so many big tools, size envy in a non homic way I love the chair, I have seen this done on a smaller scale but still amazing watching you work. Thanks for sharing
You continue to outdo yourself, your sense of design is amazing! As always thank you for sharing your workmanship with us!
Thank you once again Tom!😁
Best woodworking videos out here, always a pleasure to see a new one. Beautiful chair, well done.
You use such a wild mix of these massive industrial machines, and handheld jobsite power tools, to build your pieces. I could approximate most of the techniques you use, but not all of them.
... and then there's the robots
Every once in a while I try to use simplest tools as possible.. This one is quite simple to recreate and some of my industrial tools are not necessary, 1.5mm spruce veneer is not that uncommon and before I got the machine I always used that..
Beautiful. So much work!
Between the simple and repetitive shapes and the color contrast in the two types of wood, I absolutely like this design!
Thank you very much Harko! I'd just like I had more time to put on some finish before I went on vacation to make that red color pop!
Simple & elegant design, lot of steps to get there, but that's bespoke furniture. I'm amazed at the age of most of your tools, but still functioning well
So clean. Love it, and it looks comfy to boot!
Thank you very much! New profile pic, almost didn't recognise you😉
You can do it, so simple and so elegant, beautiful..!
Thank you Karl!
Отличная работа!!!
Это выглядит очень пластичным.
Beautiful design!
Talk about big toys. That jigsaw was the biggest motor and blade I've ever seen (on a jigsaw). The reciprocating saw to cut multiple veneers simultaneously is a magnificent. The chair turned out well. It's not just the craftsmanship, I really get a lot out of you demonstrating your creative talent too. Thanks for the video. Cheers, David.
Thank you very much David! I'm glad you like the project! That jigsaw is an old Fein model, probably older than myself, but it gets the job done..
It's beautiful! Nice to see your working!
Thank you very much!
as usual, awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Der Meister hat wieder zugeschlagen - Excellente Arbeit
Thank you Barny😁
Another beautiful piece!
Thank you so much 😊
Muito bom, parabéns pelo belíssimo trabalho,esses trabalho é inspiração pra aprender a profissão.
I love wood working. You are very creative..
Vision, experience, perfection a good days work
Perfectly made to perfection 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks a lot 😊
What a work!
Well didn't see that one coming... absolutly amazing... with minimal tooling (aside from the lamination side of things ^^) a fantastic result! Great craftmens ship! So cool to see u guys work. Keep it up!
Incrível a pessoa, e o trabalho é impecavel👏👏👏👏👏👏😊
Круто. Руки у вас золотые. Удачи в творчестве)
what a great job!!
Fantastic!!!!
Well done, another one added to your collection.
Thank you Robert once again!🙂
Me encantan sus trabajos, soy de Chile y cuesta creer lo atrasados que estamos en métodos de producción. Siempre veo que su taller está full equipado... me imagino que todas las herramientas y maquinarias son de bajo costo. Saludos!!!
Enjoyable video. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for watching Mike!
Amazing job
Excellent work
Me: 'That chair looks so flimsy. Needs a cross brace'.
Lignum: *stands on rock solid chair*
Me: *Strokes chin and nods" 'Never doubted the master for even a moment'
M Smith still think it needs a cross brace. Over time these tiny screws will chew up that thin wood veneer.
I was doubtful myself😉
Svaka cast, nakon svakog odgledanog videa jedva cekam novi
Hvala Mato! :D
Beautiful
Todo espectacular amigo! Congratulations!!!!!
Thank you very much! :D
Классный ролик! И стул прикольный!
Wow, amazing
A master woodworker if there ever was one
Thank you very much Fred, I really appreciate it.. :)
Admiro tus proyectos y la combinación de uso de herramientas incluyendo a "Mr. Kuka"
Congratulations!!! 🇲🇽
Great work!
Thanks! :D Glad you like it Wender!

Thanks a ton Chris! :D
Incrível, parabéns
Great design...as usual.
Thank you very much Hazem!
Eres tu uno de los mejores del mundo SEGURO
Love it!
Thank you Ellie! :D
I thought it was wood and leather at first from the thumbnail. Great looking piece.
Parabéns!
i love watching your videos for both the projects you do as well as all your behemoth tools! do you do mass production, too, or just one-of-a-kind pieces? that shop must be used for more than just your projects, amazing though they are. and greetings from So Cal!
Bravo
Bravo, sekoja cest !
Thank you Ognen!
Perfect 😘❤️👍👍😎
Cool to see bent lamination without the use of a steam box
:D I'ts every day for me.. I never used a steam box tbh but I would like to try that technique..
Lindo. ..... Amei
Очень крутой стул!!!
Superb... As always...
Thanks a lot 😊
Like an all wood buff Eames chair :)
Wow
☺ wau...super!
Thank you very much!
Nice bro
The first piece took a while to make, but after you have the template ready, you can make them very fast
Yes you are right! I'm thinking of making an entire dining set..
@@lignumchannel I'm thinking of making one inspired by this but I don't have any tool to cut thin slices of wood
Daniel H. Try contacting veneer suppliers; they’ll oftentimes have special thickness veneers. Certainly Wood in New York currently has some species up to 1/16” but I’ve seen ⅛” thick veneers on their website before
Cool design bro but i dont think it would last but still looks cool
Sangat Luar biasa !!!
Que bonita
dobar dan. very interesting. Maybe you should consider that strengthwise, wood is the ultimate carbon fiber lengthwise and can take silch across.
Croatian design have for the last twenty years gone pompeus like some other european contries, with sofaes filling up the whole room, etc. At the same time your potential customers are moving in to smaller and smaller appartments. Interesting choice of wood though. With the amount of hrast being cut every year and not enough replanting to sustaint it. We will all have to get used to fast growing poplar.
Крутая работа! Сколько времени ушло на работу?
💪Класс 👍
Hello from Bordeaux ( city of wine in France 😉)! I'm so in love of this chair, really élégant. Did you imagine the design yourself too?
Thank you! 😊 Yes I did:D
Breakin out the handsaw!
Cozy Arm Chair. ;- )
Very very good.I
Many many thanks :D
you should look up studio jeroen wand, your lamination of veneers reminded me of his work
Thank you Joep. I wrote it down and will take a look at his work when I get home from vacation.
I loved the video. Would you hazard a guess at the maximum load range for that chair? (I am notoriously bad at estimating) but I would put your weight at 170 to 190 and it seemed to handle that just fine. :-)
❤
Клёво !
Красиво
Класс !
Красивое
Looks comfortable. Very well made. Love the curved wood frame. Question, what type of glue do you use?
I use melamine and vinyl acetate glue. Glad you like it!
WOW man excellent stuff do you need a apprentice?
Beautiful chair! Was wondering with the seat and back added does that stiffen up the chair very solid without wiggling side to side?
Yes they do, I wasn't sure if I would need to add some reinforcements but after it was completed It turned out quite rigid..
I have the same doubts. It seemed like no glue for the seat just 8 or 10 srews. Time and usage can only answer 🤔🙂
Wow!
Rad resaw machine and air clamps (looks like Taylor clamps)!
Awesome chair!
Where you located brother?
:)
Considering Agadmator ( ruclips.net/channel/UCL5YbN5WLFD8dLIegT5QAbA ) lives only a hour from him, I'd say he's in Croatia.
Beautiful, viable using a leather seat?
Wonderful job. Thanks for sharing. Wich glue do you use for lamination? Is it an epoxy or a U.F glue?
I'm new to the channel and wood working also. what is the stuff you wipe on "down on the wood" so the glue want stick.
what is the machine at 4:20? it's amazing!
Hello from Easton Maryland. Wonderful videos. What kind of glue you use?
Thank you Juan! :D For the mahogany I used vinyl acetate and for the spruce I used two component melamine formaldehyde glue.
Very nice! Question: I don't see how you're over coming the racking forces. Can you elaborate or is this more of a show piece and not really meant to be used?
The seat and back panels resist racking. But the only thing that seems to prevent twist (from left to right) is the fact that it's a chair, which normally sits on a floor (which is presumably flat) when loaded. But if this needs to be shipped, I suppose it would be disassembled anyway.
You are right.. The seat and back keep everything in place.. As with most of my projects, details are decided along the way and I wasn't sure if some additional reinforcements would be necessary until it was complete, but it turned out it was strong enough as is..
@@lignumchannel Alvar Aalto pioneered bent lamination back in the 1920's, look up some of his furniture; the dimensions are really quite small, and the wood handles the forces with no problems. They have some flex, but it mostly adds to the comfort of the chairs. His "Armchair 42" especially has very similar design to yours.
When you say melamine glue, is that a urea formaldehyde glue? Love your work.
جميل وراااائع ، beautiful & perfect 👌 job
Thank you! Yes that's it.
cool job! how long did it take to work?
Well to be honest I didn't keep the track of time.. I would say somewhere around 15 hours or so..
what is the name of the machine who split the wood in 10 slice ? Awsome work !!!
Most likely "the wood in 10 slice splitter". It would make sense to me.
But someone else mentioned something called "thickness veneer".
