I felled the trees, milled them on my bandsaw, cut the mortises and tenons then raised the frame with a gin pole, block and tackle. Not the easiest way but the most satisfying.
My Love and Joy
Resting comfortably on a settee in the unfinished living room.
That is the problem with such comfortable chairs not enough work gets done.
The woodstove keeps all 2500 square feet toasty warm, too big for two, but we designed it while living on a little boat and got a bit carried away with the idea of space.
