Pask Makes

The chair is often considered a milestone in fine woodworking and a project that many put on a pedestal. Many people select the best possible materials and work slowly and deliberately to achieve that milestone achievement. However, before you spend a good chunk of change on lumber, why not create a few prototypes from scrap wood to practice? This scrap wood chair from Pask Makes not only looks great, but is also functional and a great way tu use some pieces you may have just lying around the shop.

  1. Been following you for a long time but for a while now I find your videos straying from what I consider woodworking. Also those annoying popups for echo dot. Very distracting. I understand you gotta make a living but I’m no longer entertained. Thought you might want to know.

  2. Bob, I couldn’t disagree more!
    Jay, you keep ongoing as you are. Yous ISFATW newsletter is always interesting even when there’s stuff in there that i wouldn’t consider trying. It is always inspiring to see what other people are using their talent and ingenuity for. Keep up the great work!

  3. Jay. Thanks for searching the web for us. If I am interested I’ll watch the selection that I pick. Ads are part of the internet experience. get a life Bob.
