Classic Woodworking

Episode Synopsis

Host Tom McLaughlin shares his technique for making a Craftsman-style dining chair out of white oak this week on Classic Woodworking. It's an example of mortise and tenon chair construction employing peg joinery and traditional chair-making, amplified with details that modernize the honest construction of the Craftsman period. Tom will also add an upholstered seat to the piece, helping make this chair both functional and comfortable.
