Making a handmade armchair from bent wood

In this video you can see how an armchair is made. Most of the steps are carried out by hand.
The work is varied and ranges from the armchair frame made of bent and glued ash wood, to the upholstery straps made of flax and the sewing of the upholstery cover for the foam cushion.
I had wanted to build an armchair for our living room for a long time.
There was still some ash wood left over from the bucket project • Making a bucket comple... . The armchairs have now been made from this.
It wouldn't have been worth making the bending and gluing moulds for just one armchair, so I ended up making two identical armchairs.
I filmed the first armchair. With number two, additional film material was added.
I completely assembled the wooden parts of the armchair once to determine the lengths of the upholstery straps before rounding the wooden edges. I don't show this part in the video, however, as I want to keep the suspense about the appearance of the chair until the end.
Have fun....

Very impressive, from design, to preparing raw timber, to construction, to finishing. This video ais a tutorial that I will save for reference.

[@madJesterful]

I really like the practicality and design of your steaming tool / steam bending technique. I built a skin on frame kayak and really wish I had seen this video before I laminated the coaming.

Very Alvar Aalto in style. Reminded me of his chair model 406

Großartige Handwerksarbeit bis ins kleinste Detail durchdacht! Nur wer selbst schon ähnliches versucht hat, weiß wieviel Überlegung und Arbeit allein in den Hilfsvorrichtungen zum Biegen und Kleben der Teile stecken. Tolles projekt und super Ergebnis! Danke fürs zeigen! Gruß Egbert

Hallo Egbert, herzlichen Dank für Deine Wertschätzung! Grüsse Andi

Super Arbeit

[@garygenerous8982]

Sir, that was phenomenal work. I especially enjoyed seeing the process of making the webbing and cushions. How do you decide on what projects to work on since every one of your videos is completely different although they are all amazing. Well I can’t wait to see what you do next.

[@andiswerkstatt-ow4uw]

Thank you!
The motivations are different. Most of the projects are for the family (shoes, chair). I would do these even without filming. The bucket was "just for fun". I enjoyed this project the most.
Since I've been making hornbows for 17 years now, I wanted to find a conclusion to bow making with the hornbow video. But the bows will not let me go completely. There could be more to come on youtube. Greetings Andi
