It's what makes an armchair an armchair.

No chair is complete without a backrest, so that's what this week has been about.

It's a feel-good milestone when a new chair can finally stand on its own four legs.

Work surrounding the second glue-up brings the Upprätt 2 armchair into clearer focus.

This week, as I approach the midpoint of the Upprätt 2 project, I'm faced with the most challenging portion of the work.

At last, we arrive at the first assembly and glue-up of the Upprätt 2 armchair.

This week, it's time to focus on the legs of this version 2 of the Upprätt chair.

To prepare for the American Craft Council Saint Paul Show this coming April, I've decided to take a fresh look at my Upprätt chair design.
