Made of Cherry and mostly with hand tools this stool features splayed legs in two directions. The legs are also tapered with a hand plane and are angled mortise and tenon in two directions. The top(as is all parts) are made of 8/4 cherry with some fairly wild grain. As I mentioned it is made mostly with hand tools with the exception of ripping the leg and stretcher stock down. The concave top and stringer were made using a scrub plane and then cleaning it up with a spoke shave, card scraper and double strength glass as a scraper. Everything was hand burnished with plane shavings and then finished with boiled linseed oil and some wax. I figure about 100 hours went into making this and I did it without a proper work bench which was a tedious feat at best. There are a few flaws, but I'm not telling!
