This lovely couple spent 5 days with me in the shop last week, building a Windsor rocking chair. They fabricated all their chair parts from raw material using strictly hand planes and various other hand tools. On Friday, after a lot of hard work and fun, they left with their very own rocker. Class registration can be found by going to my website - www.hansschmidtwoodwork.com

Last Minute Shopping? Think of a hobbit stool for that little one sitting watching TV. Made from solid Ohio hardwoods; extremely sturdy joinery with wedged top legs. I have several in stock; while it’s too late to ship “on time” they are still available for pickup here.
