  • Hi, I made my very first chair(s).
    It took so long from designing to making,
    and it was a bit challenging since I've never made furniture has curves.
    It still needs improvement (like carving right curve for arm and leg connection),
    but I will do that later since I'm a little exhausted😂.
    Thank you for watching and
    stay safe.

    I don't know if it's the music or the way these videos are filmed (probably both), but I find them very relaxing.
    You make it look effortless, but I feel furniture like this is very hard to get right.
    They came up beautifully. I love how the armrests bend around the back with the brass supports.
    A testament to your skill and patience.

    I’ve been restoring MCM lounge chairs for a couple months now and this video is just beautiful. I love seeing these chairs designed and built. I love your use of Brass, and also how you don’t hide the woods natural grain! Every single time I restore a piece it feels like the original grain is hidden behind cheap toner, I even made my own method to make it pop out! You on the other hand do an amazing job with wood choice and also your finish process!
