The six day chair making course led by Paul Hayden takes place in the beautiful woods at Westonbirt National Arboretum. Using traditional green woodworking techniques, Matt turned freshly felled ash logs into a Windsor chair that will last for generations.

Thank you Matt, for coming on the course and for the good feedback. Thanks also to Triton for making it all possible!
Thank you for teaching me so much, Paul!
A big thank you to Triton Tools for giving our man, Matt, the opportunity to take part in such an endeavor! Good on you, Triton. You know how to pick a winner. Excellent video!
Lol. I just imagined a cartoon of a springpole turner. One normal leg and the other looking like you see on the pro bodybuilders. Great video, I have a shave horse and the other kit But my lathe is modern and electric. Lovely.
Excellent work Matt! An experience you will never forget! One leg should be stronger than the other. Those super jaws are able to do more than I thought. Beautiful chair and very happy Triton gave you the opportunity!
Thanks Mac!
Matt is cool. I buy Triton products because of Matt Cremona! Give him that Honda (Triton) Money!
Matt in a woodworking class. Now that is funny. You looked like you were trying so hard. What a trooper.
What an amazing experience for anyone! Thank you Triton Tools for making it experience possible for Matt. You've chosen an excellent #Woodworking representative! #KeepTheChipsFlying!
Matt youre sick. Triton please sponsor this dude!
Nice job Matt!
Awesome to see the process...🇨🇦
Incredible work the chair looks great. It's kind of funny but I know that feeling because once you start your committed, perfect example I've never done this before but can only imagine. The look on your face was priceless when the back fit into your mortises into the seat. Always love seeing your work.
Thank you Thom!
bigoldkid jumps up and down cheering wildly for Matt --- stops, looks at all the cracks in the pavement --- looks around to see if anyone is watching, and kicks some dirt over the cracks.
Then later starts to wonder if England somehow missed a big shipment of electrons or som'n, since they didn't seem to have any 'lectricity for them nice Triton power tools. "Spot of bad luck, old chap," as one might say on that side of the pond.
But fortunately, they still had some of them old hand tools laying around from the "days of yore," and Matt still manged to work his wonders with the wood
Triton getting its stock music from the same place that the Samurai Carpenter does: ) Great video!
Looks like a fun class. Thanks Triton for doing this.
Thanks
good job Matt,
things made in this way have great warmth. As they say in my country: done with the soul.
This is a gr8 way to se what those YouTuce fancy carpenters can do - give them green wood and hand tools and you will si they true skils..
Enjoyed the video! I was sent here by Matt.
Sweet seat.
What a great experience Matt. Great video too...rr
Awesome work Matt! Thanks Triton for a great video!
Seems like an awesome experience, awesome job Matt! 👍👊
Matt, what an amazing experience! I am interested in attending! Definitely added to my bucket list!
Sweet... Roy Underhill would be proud
Nice Matt! Awesome chair!!
Thank you!
Nice video Matt.
never skip legday!
Good stuff! I was starting to feel bad for triton until the super Jaws got used. I was surprised to not see a froe used to split the wood, or a hewing hatchet.
Thanks Robert! Paul explained to me that the axe is more approachable for beginners than a froe. The hewing hatchets were available in the chopping area where we were refining the blank before the shaving horse.
Now that would be a fun time, with a bit of work thrown in with tea.
I will admit, my first thought was how did you get that home? I know disassembled it made a relatively flat pack. Funny how your mind goes to goofy places at time when I should simply enjoy the video.
Thank you for the video
What a cool experience. I would love to find a class like this near me. The UK is just too far for me.
Nice job, now to see if you can get Spagnola to do one like it using only hand tools :P
13:41 i like the colour of the persuasion tool
Very nice job, without using electric tools.
Hey Matt thank God for electricity ! : )
billfromelma amen!
👍👍
Our here we can’t give away a spindle back chair. I think Walmart sold too many. 😁
In this style of chair-making, what is the source of the seat wood? Slab of green wood from a large log? Seasoned wood, thinner pieces laminated together?
Thanks Triton for doing this. We love your champions.
Do you realise you are now a fully qualified “bodger” ?
Great to see you got the angles right. Was that Ash you were using. Traditionally it would have been Elm for the seat and adzed wet as it goes rock hard. No Elm available now after Dutch elm disease. Did you get to the Windsor chair museum in High Wycombe?
Nice work. Was all the wood dried?
after a few days in the oil drum kiln it was
Matthew Cremona when did they dry it? Before or after you worked it. Or was the log dry
Matt it’s funny the last 3 videos I have seen you in, you have used the word “butt” a lot 😂. At least you stopped saying crotch for a bit!!!
Were these all Triton tools? (LOL)
shoulders in old times were important.I have made stools and my problem is getting the shoulders right. Has anyone found a technique. Marrige is not easy. Sorry for a frogs english
i am a furniture designer and never been design windsor chair :D i know the sample maker in my team say it weww how to do :D

looks tedious
Just goes to show how much work they had to do when making things -- before we learned how useful it was to push electrons through long strands of metal, heh. ;^)
Good video and what a GREAT experience for Matt!! 👍 Ron, Littlewierdshop
Wow. Respect for early furniture makers before the industrial manufacturing era. True value of the craftsmanship price.
thank you Mat . oh my aching legs and arms on that kind of stuff . well they would be if i did that .
Highly enjoyable vid, thanks Matt.. looked like a lot of fun.
I want to know more please. Where was this? How do I contact them?
