I promised myself I’d keep posting at least once a month if not once a week this year… Apparently not happening.

Back in June I finally got a log of white oak (chinkapin oak specifically) for the roof shingle making project. The Ft Mifflin forge’s roof is in bad shape.

And I also acquired a red oak log at the same time.

So I started a pair of JA chairs.

And on Saturday I’m taking an online class taught by Elia Bizzari and Curtis Buchanan. The class is the first in a series for making Curtis’s “Democratic Chair”. Stay tuned for comments on the class…

Due to the covid pandemic, I had cancelled all classes and craft shows/fairs that I was going to do. And the wildlife refuge has shut the visitor’s center.

So I am actually left with too much time and dithering over what to do next.

But first I should finish the JA Chairs

Be well, stay safe
