      Had to question my memory then! I thought, no it's Neil who made the chair. Great idea from two greats

    Seeing Jimmy on the school benches (the school rocking chairs I should say) is surprising. Who knew he still had more to learn.
    It was a superb video. Thank you craftsman 👍

    Wow, how fabulous! Such a wonderful compilation of 21st century wizardry happily married to techniques of the ages, creating extraordinary fineness with elegant lines, yet strong & delightful to gently rock in. The entire endeavor coupling love of quality work with the camaraderie of makers brought together by UA-cam interactions & the vision of one man to provide outstanding teaching with the finest tools available. We live in such wondrous times. Thank you for sharing!

    Great. What a fantastic chair and process. Many clever tricks of the trade. In this day and age of CAD & CNC everything a chair handcrafted with skill and physical effort must be quite satisfying.....it is for me the viewer. Everything about the shop is charming and appropriate for the task.
