Thanks Paul.  Guess the Mackintosh inspired chair makes it male friendly, though we would probably prefer it to have arms so we are able to set back and cogitate - no need for us to worry about our petticoats getting creased up while stuck  between arms.  Time taken to make it was probably around 6 months, of work 6 days a week. 

It was made on this small bench!!!!!  As you might guess it prompted me to invest in a new bench, and  expand my work area.
