Matt has been a favorite presenter to our group for the past few years and we welcome him back again. He had previously presented to us about constructing and veneering a coopered door, the technique of bricking a table apron, and last year creating rule joints and finger joints.

Matt will be discussing and demonstrating Shaping Parts for Traditional Chair Making and plans to show both round and elliptical post and leg examples.
