Description
Walter Turpening has been designing and perfecting 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. 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, plus his methods for measuring the recipient and their intended end use of the furniture for perfect ergonomic comfort. At 73 years young, it is Walt's desire to share his treasury of knowledge for the benefit of woodworkers and crafters.
