Furniture Design Considerations AND Spray Gun Discussion

  • November 11, 2017
  • 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
  • Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School

A double-header. 

Those of us who attended the Annual Meeting in June got a first hand look at Steve McKenna's beautiful Maloof-style rocking chair. (See the photos on the front page of this website.) Steve McKenna will discuss design considerations he went through in the making of this chair, including a short video about the crafting of 8/4" rough sawn cherry lumber into a carved rocking chair.  This chair won 1st place in Highland Hardwoods summer competition and was juried and shown at the Philadelphia Furniture Show.  After the video, Steve will discuss the background and process of design that led to this chair.  He will have another (not rocking but occasional) chair at the meeting and will take questions about the construction of the chairs.

Dick Belanger will demonstrate and discuss his recent experiences with a Rockler/Earlex® spray gun,  a recent entry to the market segment for the small home shop.
