    Wonderful project. Not only well documented, but so considerate!
    Somewhere where aging sock can put his foot up and rest from the frictions of the workplace
    and ponder attempts to wax eloquent.

    For me, as a beginner.... It was good to see how you stood and moved around the 34min mark where the camera showed your stance; this helped me 😁

    If you place painters tape around the holes and tenon tops. The epoxy can easily be lifted off with a sharp knife. I'm an old furniture builder.😁

    Thank you for this lesson in turning a project that is not a bowl. The comments both verbal and written are very instructive. I also appreciated the shots on body movements.

    I really look forward to the first of the month to see what project the four of you are doing. I enjoy seeing the different thought processes that each of you use when approaching the task. I gives me more to think about with what I am turning my self. I have only been turning a little over a year and appreciate what I am learning for all of you

    Love to listen to you talk to yourself. While tuning the first leg your used the word 'chubby'. I had a good chuckle with that one. Really enjoy your entertaining videos. Thank you. Oh yea, I have some different Christmas presents in mind !

    Very well done Richard. Great entry in the four way challenge. I really like the bevel on the underside of the seat that matches the leg splay. Nice design. Simple and easy to build. Great fixture for drilling leg holes in the seat. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

    I hollowed out my seats a little - they seem to "sit" a bit more comfortable. On the other hand - the flat ones can be utilized as small tables for tea-cups etc. Nice work. Kind regards.

    A simple and versatile design, both as a seat and a (side) table. Interesting indeed to see how you changed your ideas and plans along the way. And the four different approaches to the same basic idea. Farewell, Old Sock. Briefly I knew you, but much stripey joy did you give me. What type of wood is it? If you said, I feared I missed it on the first viewing? Many thanks for sharing your insights and experience once more.

    Awesome as usual! Simple design but very aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Was that spalted maple? Beautiful! Your drill press jig was the bombdiggity best. Thanks again! I have never turned a stool but I must soon! For removal of epoxy, glue etc I have gone to using a wood chisel with a near 90 degree blunt end. Just like 1 degree of angle to leave an 89 degree point. Quick grind on the grinder leaves a beautiful burr that with the chisel laid flat on the surface does extremely quick removal of glues and leaves a surface that doesn’t need further sanding if following the grain. Stumpy Nubs brilliant idea this, and is one I wish I’d have known 50 years ago. Best tip ever! Glue squeeze out is now a breeze when before it drove me nuts. Again you are the man Richard!! Greetings from across the pond to the west.

      A wood chisel made into a scraper is basically all it is, just used flat, not on its edge.

    • @RichardRaffanwoodturning
      @RichardRaffanwoodturning  Год назад

      This is box elder. Many thanks for the cleanup tip. I've a couple of old chisels I can regrind and I can see them being very handy cleaning up after filling gaps. I'd not thougth of scraping rather than sanding.

      All the tools are HSS and variously made by Henry Taylor, Hamlet, Sorby, D-Way, Gurtool, and Thompson. The scrapers are Henry Taylor and Hamlet.

    Great video as always Richard, always something to learn from watching the master at play. I made three stools for my grand kids from different hard woods using the project in your Taunton press turning book. They have become prized family possessions. one was made from Tamarind, which looks similar to the wood you are using - whht is that wood?

      The stool is only 360mm high and I'm sure at these legs will be fine, especially being similar to stools I've used for many years.

      Richard, I know you are a master woodturner. I live in a German/Swiss community that has been building furniture since the 1850’s.
      We have chairs at the White House that were requested by John Kennedy for his inauguration. Furniture from this area is sold worldwide.
      My point is-we know how to design and build all types of furniture, including stools.
      My channel has an example. I have built all types of projects, including wooden boats. Been at it for 65+ years.

      For what it's worth, Wiktionary notes "slithers" is a non-standard or informal British usage, so not necessarily to be considered incorrect. I remember Paul Sellers mentioning it, at one point
