First Steps.

So today I started with some 8/4 maple. We bought this wood 11 years ago and never made anything with it. So since it was laying around I decided it would be the perfect wood to begin with.  It was cupped pretty bad.  So I cut it to length first for all the pieces.



I then ran all my boards through my jointer so I could cut it on the tablesaw.


Once I got all my pieces to a rough width, the next step is to plane it down so I can glue it all up.



I was able to match up some great grain for a very pretty looking seat.


I also have all my templates ready to go.

Next week I will begin all the cutting out on the bandsaw.
