You are a real craftsman! You used old handtools, didn't try to hurry. Very original. Really beautiful chair you turned out. Really appreciate your work.
I learned total respect from an older guy that repaired period Windsors had a room full he collected. After he passed his kids almost gave them away. You are spot on on style. When he repaired it was "always with period air dried wood he collect up and down the east coast in estate sales still hiding in barns built the same period.
I really must compliment you on the quality of the filming, and a perfect soundtrack. If you filmed and edited the film yourself, then you are true multi-talent.
@@samchampionmarchant You are not just a Furniture Maker, you are a Master Furniture Maker! It is an honor and privilege to watch you do what you love with such dedication to the craft. It is very inspiring and educational, and a huge thanks to your friend for making it possible for us to see your beautiful work :)
Very well done. Windsors are something I’ve always wanted to do for the challenge and skill building, but with no local market for them, I’ve refrained. Your chair is stunning in that oil finish. Keep it up. Cheers
Absolutely beautiful work and such a pleasure to see not only the skilled craftsmanship, but a very well done video. I have built one Windsor continuous arm chair, had trouble getting the leg angles correct so could you please tell me what angle measuring tool you were using? Thanks!
What an absolutely stunning piece! The entire process was breathtaking! If I could ask a technical question, what is the merit of having the seat's grain oriented along the axis of sitting? I would like to try my hand at building a Windsor chair, but the reasoning behind the grain orientation eludes me! Thank you for your time and making this chair a reality!
Thank you. The grain on Windsor Chairs traditionally ran from front to back. On Welsh Stick Chairs, it would run from side to side. Both last a very long time and there doesn't seem to be a structural downsides to either. Just make sure you align your wedges accordingly.
@@samchampionmarchant You know what, it's been a month since you mentioned Welsh Stick Chairs to me here, and I just wanted to wholeheartedly say thank you! You led me down a rabbit hole of studying the history of chairmaking, and I've been developing a few designs of my own as a result! It has definitely paved a new avenue for my passion for the craft. Seeing this build video for a second time, I can see why I was so inspired in this moment. What a stunning piece of furniture and build video! Thank you for sharing your process, and for that tip about the wedges. I'll never forget to check the orientation now! I am grateful!
Would you list the manufacturers of the hand tools you use? This will help me to avoid making poor choices both paying too much for those dan-died up ones or too little on failed great deals. I have been making furniture for forty five years and think the time has come for me to make a Windsor.
Really enjoying the film, but I am wincing at your table saw use (ripping)🫢 I‘ve made one Windsor but using slightly less „industrial“ approach, just shaving horse and rounding planes, mostly in the Bavarian woodsLegs turned on lathe. I‘ll certainly use some of your techniques on my next chair, you‘ve motivated me to make another.👍 By the way, really liked your fence in the background at the beginning. Watching further, how could I have used „industrial“? You must think I‘m a complete dickhead. Sorry.
Thank you for your comment. My reasoning for the industrious approach is because i work on commission. I usually do all the milling on my machines so i can work at a more competitive rate. Sometimes though a drawknife and a shave horse is far quicker and much more pleasant. And you should definitely make another Windsor Chair.
Yeah great work but what happens when something gets in your eye and you lose an eye you are the only person I’ve ever seen on RUclips that doesn’t wear eye protection When Operating a wood lathe or any other machinery for that matter. I’m not sure if OSHA monitors these videos or not but if they do and they see you without your eye protection you will get a very big fine. Don’t be stupid dude put on your eye protection please👁🦮👨🏻🦯🧑🏼🦯👁🦮👨🏻🦯🧑🏼🦯👁

Beautiful chair! Beautiful craftsmanship! Thanks for sharing you craft with us all.
Refreshing to not see a Domino Joiner being used. Beautiful work.

Thank you i am glad you like it. All credit for the filming and editing goes to my friend i am just a Furniture Maker.

Excellent craftsmanship! Thank you for the video.
Pleasure to watch such obvious quality and skill. Nice job !
Absolutely love the video. It's good to see the young folks learning the craft.
Superb job Sam - Beautiful chair and music.
Thank you for sharing this process. I learned a lot. Inspiring indeed.
Very well done and very well filmed. Thank you.
Thank you Kevin

Inspiring craftsmanship. Truly wonderful piece of furniture. Well done.
A work of art !
I absolutely loved this project. Really nice work. But aren't you using the drawknife upside down? I was taught bevel side up
Absolutely beautiful work and such a pleasure to see not only the skilled craftsmanship, but a very well done video. I have built one Windsor continuous arm chair, had trouble getting the leg angles correct so could you please tell me what angle measuring tool you were using? Thanks!
Fantastische Handarbeit,
ich bin auch ein Möbeltischler, es erinnert mich an meine jungen Jahre. Weiterhin viel Erfolg.
Great work and video, Samuel. Congrats!
nice video, very nice work. good luck 👍🏼
So many youtuber show making the table, just few youtubers show making the chairs

Отлично!!! Какой молодец!!! Мне пришлось без шаблонов делать, по фотографиям из инстаграма
Да уж, парню иструмент точить пора, стамески во всяком случае...
truly masterpiece
Excellent video! A windsor chair is my someday project. I just don't think im quite good enough yet to pull it off!
Give it a go it's a really satisfying and enjoyable project, Use it to push your skills even further.
fine work

I can do that sharpening a pencil with a chisel thing…….the rest of this is way beyond my skills. Impressive work…..subscribed.
Thake a glass to protect you !!😤😲😨
What?
Looks nice. Gotta step up your tool sharpening game, though. Even without looking, I could tell many of your tools were quite dull… I could hear it.
Beautiful artisan work. Your not wearing safety glasses/ear protection makes me feel very anxious.

I almost always do wear eye protection especially on the lathe. Next time I am on the lathe you should see it.
@@samchampionmarchant i’m looking forward to it👍🏻
