Recently finished the run of Dining Chair No. 6 with a matching bench. The version you see are about 1.5″ taller then standard to accommodate a tall family and accompany a 33″ tall dining table (3″ taller then standard). Made from local black walnut with black leather upholstery.
Setting up to take some photos of the Dining Chair No. 6 mockup.
Snapped this Marilyn Monroe inspired shot by total fluke while adjusting/testing the settings on the camera.
Timing is everything, better to be lucky then good, isn’t that what they say?
First post on the new blog, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Reed Hansuld and I design / build custom furniture.
I plan on using this blog as a place to spotlight the process of making my ideas reality. Enjoy! I am going to start with a video we shot last week of a kiln dried white oak blank being steam twisted. Dimensions are approximately 3/4″ x 2″ x 34″. We were steaming and twisting 60+ blanks over the weekend in preparation for a dining table that will be constructed over the next couple weeks. Stay tuned for updates of the process.
