Spiel Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Well I finally got new tires and a blade on my band saw allowing to get to work on an Antler seat for a friend, he loves his Antler seats. I honestly didn't think I could get a full ergonomic contour seat from this piece due to the curve and lack of mass across the profile as seen in the pictures. But after repositioning it a few times as I made progress into getting it round I was successful in getting it done. I'm now waiting from my friend to see which side he prefers to have mortised for the reel. Now it's time to sit on the porch and relax with a cold one while the stink in the shop dissipates. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my efforts to replace the one that blew up on my band saw I discovered that that is indeed what they are called. Go figure. And thank ya Sir, it's not my favourite medium to work with but I do like the finished results, indeed though it's not to everyone's taste.

I now have it laid out and ready to go on the rod this afternoon having attained customer approval (11.5"s to reel position was his request) to proceed. On another note, it must have been nice to hear VERA up about again. She didn't come this way this morning, maybe this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
