      @@TimberBiscuitWoodworks I use plywood because that's what I can get at my local Homeless Despot store... and I have to ask ppl with trucks to help me move it. I make mostly shop and storage things. But I'd like to make other custom pieces... As I've learned, Woodworking is not for making stuff cheaper... just more custom. Plywood is still an acquired taste in aesthetics, but you really made it look good with that style of furniture... Yes I was paying attention PLWOOD or HARDWOOD... LOL

    Hardwood is definitely what I tend to work with most. There is something about shaping hardwood that I have not been able to duplicate with plywood so that my solid wood projects feel more creatively executed than with plywood.
    That said, I love the chair! The exposed plywood definitely improves the overall vibe of it.

    Hardwood and plywood are interchangeable. In terms of durability, they're both hard wood. It has to make sense financially to do a project like this entirely in hardwood. Plywood is just so convenient minus the edge banding (which isn't a big deal.)

    Hardwood. Well, actually bacon, but that doesn't hold up well, so hardwood... while I wouldn't choose that aesthetic myself, that turned out very well. The complexity of making this - even out of plywood - isn't lost on me.
    I'm wondering if you have watched or know of Chris Salamone (Four Eyes)? He's very much a Mid-Century Modern furniture maker, and has developed a lot of the tricks you used (templates, plywood sleds) for dead-on components. You have all the tools he's got that are critical (Domino, good router and bits) for his approach, too. Give him a look if you haven't. I'd enjoy watching you do something inspired by that.

  • @D-B-Cooper
    @D-B-Cooper 19 днів тому +1

    That would be considered a lounge chair. They are lower, have more angle on the seat and greater angle on the back. A dining chair usually doesn’t have arms so it can fit under the table. People use to be smaller and a criteria was for women to have their feet reach the floor and the table low enough for proper posture and dining. The arms would make it so you need to scoot the chair up to the table somehow and when you want to get up you are kind of trapped and with a top heavy chair like that the front of the seat can catch on the back of your calves and fall over possibly hurting something and embarrassing your guests. Sitting on the front edge of a chair like that cuts off the circulation in your legs and you don’t want to stay there very long. Chair design is evolving because the majority of people are now obese. The legs would look better if they were also angled out a bit and tapered ever so slightly. You must be considering going into production with all those toys.

    • @TimberBiscuitWoodworks
      @TimberBiscuitWoodworks  19 днів тому +1

      Well, I appreciate your observation. These chairs were designed to replace chairs at the head of my table so there’s not as much concern with scooting in or out. The armrest are also low enough that they don’t really obstruct anyone from getting in and out anyway so I don’t think that’s too much of a concern. Being that they are from one sheet of plywood each, they are rather heavy but to me that also makes them solid. Thanks for watching!
