    Well ----- got out of my emotional fog today - made some progress on the chair I've been toying around with for a year and a half.

    Chair frame and back are mortise/tenon construction (notice through tenon on the arm rests).

    Hard part of this project is really the finish.

    Really tough to get a consistent finish.

      Are you doing the upholstery yourself?
