Making a Bent Lamination Office Chair //

For the Rockler bent wood challenge being put on the the Modern Maker Podcast, I made a bent lamination wood office chair.
I've built a few wood chairs, but this was by far the most complicated because of all the bent lamination wood parts. It definitely stretched my abilities as a woodworker to build this chair.
There have been lots of cool entries into the Rockler Bent wood Challenge, and I'm looking forward to see the videos others publish.
The design of office chair has a very Ikea feel, according to Chris Salomone from Foureyes, but I can't argue with. I do love the minimalistic midcentury modern look the chair has, and the bent lamination pieces flow really well into each other.

  • This is truly one of the most beautiful office chairs - especially for watching Fortnite. First off - I am so happy the glue bottle mishap made the cut and on a more serious note, the addition of the walnut armrests is one of my favorite parts, so I'm glad you added that to the design - awesome work Kris!

  • How could I not sub for something this epic! Honestly speaking, even with all the power tools, this has definitely taken forever and I understand your pain. I don't have a whole lot of power tools and my sander broke in the spring, so I've spent the past week renovating two dining chairs made of fir. Both of them were painted white, so I had to strip off the paint with a heat gun and scraper, then sand them with 60 grid and then with 150 grid, before fixing the dowels that broke, giving it wax and put it back together. There are 36 pieces total. I'm almost through the 150 grid sanding stage. Did 12 pieces in 60 grid today and 30 in 150. Safe to say, I'm tired of sanding. Also, my hand hurts 😂
