Built these chairs from Tom Fidgen's book. Both were built 100% with hand tools and I don't think either of them came out very well. One is all QSWO and the other is Ash and Sapele. The QSWO chair was pretty easy and came out much better than the Ash/Sapele one. The Ash was really hard to work with and I found it impossible to plane without getting tearout, even with a low angle smoother I got tearout. It seems like I spent most of my time sanding on the Ash chair.
They both work and hopefully people will jus think they are old thanks for looking.
