I’m writing this to you because I don’t know if you still are doing woodworking anymore or even perhaps if you were alive it doesn’t look like you’ve posted anything since two years ago I like your work I like the videos you had I wish you would still put them up at least once a week if not more I like the craftsmanship of what you do well hopefully you are all well and everything is going OK in your life.
Hi Curtis, I just found your site and I think they are wonderful. Sorry it took me ten years to find it. I hope you are able to make more content soon.
You mentioned so very long ago the proper form of a Froe and the rounded back of it. I have not been able to find just a massage tab to contack you. I am trying to forge a proper froe and would like your input as to the "perfect" proper froe. What do they look like for perfect function? What to the "old school" froes look like for proper build?
I know this is sorta unrelated but you show and explain things so well. Would you mind giving thought in making a video on spoon making and how to on sharpening spoon making tools ? Also bought the Book you suggested, Chair Makers Notebook by Peter Galbert and I'm on my 2nd reading of it. Thanks Very Much for recommending. Learning alot about Chair Building and so much more. Hopefully I can make the time to attend one of your classes if you still have them. Thanks
Очень круто все! Ждем продолжения. А где можно найти чертежи Ваших стульев? я и России. Very cool everything! Waiting for continuation of. And where can I find drawings Of your chairs? me and Russia.
You are a master with that drawknife. I would be so nervous that I would break off a chip as I was pulling up toward that top outside corner. I’m guessing that the hard maple and a sharp knife are the keys to success. It might be good if you put the name of that French company in the description.
I was wondering if you could direct me. I am a reenactor for an 18th century farm and I demo crafts dealing with wood, clay and steel. I wanted to demonstrate chair building, but I would like to be able to complete it within a weekend. Do you know of a chair design that would have been made in the 18th century and could be made in 2-3 days? The end goal is to demonstrate the techniques used, not necessarily create a beautiful chair. But still I would like a functional chair to give away at the end of the weekend.
Beautiful craftsmanship. You are a master of the trade. Those chairs sure would look beautiful around a nice wooden table.

I shot a video on the froe that might answer your question. www.dropbox.com/s/kbuufws86mml42r/Buchanan_BirdCageArm_Figures_Sep19.pdf?dl=0

Christopher, if you go to Elia Bizzarri's website, you will be able to view a 2 hour class on the way I carve a spoon.
@@CurtisBuchananChairmaker Will do. Appreciate Your Time and Response.

Got a question for you Curtis. What is the width, length and thickness of your seat blanks?
It depends on the chair. The bird cage arm chair is 1 7/8" x 19 1/2" wide x 19 1/2" long
@@curtisbuchanan7691 thank you. I thought they looked to be about 2" thick,

Never mind, I just found your video on the deocratic chair. That looks like a good starting point.
