We've been dreaming of a rocking chair for a long time.
First, I try with wooden pallets and no project behind...the result was catastrophic.
Then I discovered Sam Maloof and his unique design (lines and shapes are so beautiful!) so, I wanted to try. I spent a month doing online research and studying pattern measures.
There are many mistakes and fir wood doesn't help, but I'm happy about what I learned during 7 MONTHS, only working on weekends. Hope you enjoy
