Talking Chair Version 1

It ain't pretty, but smooth, sturdy, and heavy!
Still needs a finishing touch, but I think I will be making a 2nd one, a slight bit smaller...My soon to be wifey wants one!
Oh yes I got a dremmel tool....For free!
Lots of stuff to come out now!!!!!!!

I made things like that back when I was younger and I was perpetually happy. I had a chair very similar to yours with a home made vice on the right arm. I built the chair and the vice I used for my hand made bong and pipe creation back in the day.

I had thought about that! But the chair building is not finished yet, the wifey asks If I will be starting on her's tonight...So back to the wood shop I go!
Can wait for when she lets me build a wood shop in the back yard! Going to be great!
And thanks for the wishes, nice to see something come out!

Yep, good looking Chair JT. I can just picture myself in that one with a knife in one hand and a scotch in the other. Joe.

Must of been a Hell of a Bong to use a vice and i can just imagine the size of the bowl. So the vice kept it from being dropped after a couple of Hits! LOL
