No and more so.

Can't wait to see the model for this one, Dave.

But I guess I will have to.

Oh. I see. Since the model was done for Fine Woodworking, you'll have to get it from them, here. Unless it's a cache thing on my computer, I'm not seeing the chair yet but I expect it'll be there shortly. For $12.95 you'd get the plans and the model. By the way all but 5 of the plans there are ones I did.

Like I said, it hasn't been put up there yet. It should be soon, though. The chair is covered in the current issue of the magazine.

Oh, I didn't think you were that definitive, but I see now that was the thrust.

Dave,
Just curious: Did you use native SU tools to model the curved seat and back, or did you use Shape Bender or some other plugin?

Hi David,

I used TIG's Extrude Edges by Rails after drawing the outlines. I described it here.
