Benches, Stools, and Chairs
Walter Turpening, Deborah Held
Walter Turpening has been designing and perfecting custom seating for crafters and artistic creators (particularly weavers, knitters, handspinners, and musicians) for 20-plus years. His signature cotton-cord, curved, woven seats on fine woodworked frames are sought after by crafters, and he operates on an average two-year waiting list. In recent years, he has expanded his repertoire to include ergonomic office chairs and barstools. He has also been teaching his techniques for many years, and this book is a compilation of his design journal and instructions for his methods, including the wooden furniture designs and weaving designs. At 73 years young, it is Walt's desire to share his treasury of knowledge for the benefit of furniture makers and crafters. At the heart of Walt's methods is making each seat specifically to fit the intended user while working at their favorite craft. In this book, he teaches the measurements needed for perfect ergonomic comfort. With his step-by-step instructions, photos, and diagrams, you will be able to replicate his methods to create your own custom seating for benches, chairs, stools, rockers, and more.
