Full-Size Plans from Chairmaker's Notebook, Peter Galbert

Full-size plans for the two chairs in Peter Galbert's book Chairmaker's Notebook, the fan-back and the balloon-back Windsor chairs. All drawings are fully dimensioned with easy-to-read call-outs.

The plans include:
Full-size turning patterns of legs, stretchers and posts, both bobbin and baluster forms
Full-size seat shapes with all mortise locations, sightlines and resultant angles
The fan-back crest shape and its bending form
The balloon-back profile and its bending form

The plans for both chairs come printed on a single 36" × 48" sheet of white engineering paper, folded to 9" × 12" and shipped in a rigid mailer. Printed in the USA. The plans give the shapes of all components, but you will need Chairmaker's Notebook to build the chairs as Galbert describes; they supplement, not replace, the book.
