Turned and carved spiral replacement balusters | |
How can you make sharpening less tedious and dare I say it, even fun??? A good place to start is with a little help from our friends in Fort Smith |

This is not my chair but here is a shout out to Rick R in Indiana who has purchased spindle and bow blanks for 4 side chairs, two continuous arm chairs and a settee. These are his first Windsors and he made them on his own with help from Drew Langsner and some "on-line" consulting from No-Wood-Unturned | Ricky R's Continuous Arm Chair |
Replacement spindles |
No longer in the shop, but here you can see the trophy base from below. |

...then plane in the taper. Worked like a champ. |
Hopefully this repair helped keep Shawn out of the doghouse! Replaced 3 spindles and repaired bow. | |
Most recent addition to product line. This style chair features turned, natural cherry spindles. Chair also features New York style turnings which are similar to the double baluster turnings but are more bulbous. The contrast between the natural cherry and the black over red paint is striking in my biased opinion. | |
New product this summer - kids chair, sack back style. Very cute! |
