working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Nice chair Sam. The other Sam would have smiled seeing it.
Looks fantastic.  Nice work on it.
Phenomenal work!

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Excellent chair. I can just see someone rocking in it. It looks very comfortable !!!

Excellent! I can't imagine how much work it takes to make one of these. And then get everything to line up
So many intricate shapes and blending, it'd take me 500+ hours!
Thanx for the kind comments guys :))
After being part of a woodworking site for quite a while it can get easy to see a Maloof style rocker and forget how much time and talent is on display.
Great job on an amazing project!
