The Cambrian Chair has been updated again! I have eliminated two pieces from the frame to simplify the piece even further. And my rendering skills continue to improve.
After consulting with some furniture builders it became clear that the molded plywood "Y" piece formerly joining the spine to the legs would not be strong enough. Instead, I am wrapping the spine underneath the seat and tying it to the legs with some hardware. This also serves to brace the legs, allowing me to eliminate a cross piece in front. Also, I increased the radius of the rounded corners to make the bending process easier.
I continue to think about how to simplify the production process for these chairs to make them faster and easier to build. Most modern, stylish chairs will sell from $700-1000 each, and my goal is to reduce that amount as much as possible without sacrificing the quality of the materials. If you are interested in this chair, please let me know!
best,
Brett
