Chris Kemler Woodworking

Photo blog about my furniture building process and the occasional something else that I like.

  • Here’s a project from a couple of years ago.  Maloof Rocker in walnut.  Derived from the Charles Brock plans.  Super fun project.  Lots of little problems to work though when you do it for the first time.  Lots more little problems to work through when you repeat it.  That’s why Sam kept making them.  They stayed interesting and kept changing.  How do you take that line that forms the inside bottom of the arm rest?  How does it transition from the arm to the back leg?  How do you use the grain to the greatest benefit?  So much to have fun with.
