Thanks! Makes sense, the wood was probably kiln dried so wouldn’t bend very much (if at all) and I doubt Ben does any bent laminations

We cut them with the bandsaw out of a 2 inch thick slab. We could get two out of each slab.

Very nice work! Thanks for commenting and including the link! I’ll have to check out the ncwoodworker forum since I’m back in NC now.

Did you bend the backsplat (Lumbar support curve) or cut it to shape on the bandsaw?

I made the Queen Anne chair. Here is a link to a post by the other student in class with some pictures of his chair. http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/showthread.php?t=53884

Thank you for the kind remarks. Yes, Ben is quite a character… Did you make the bed too or something else?

I took a class with Ben too, he’s great isn’t he. Your bed looks awesome, you should be proud.
