Mike Dunbar, who has been making classic Windsor chairs for more than 30 years, is sharing his expertise in a new video series.
The detailed video series takes you step by step through the process of making a traditional Windsor chair. The first chair in the series is a classic sackback Windsor made the way such chairs were made 250 years ago.
“I hope to record and post all the classes I developed during my two decades at The Windsor Institute,” said Dunbar.
He breaks down the process into segments, each about 25 minutes long, giving a detailed view of every part of the process of building a chair.
“While free for the watching, a video series is expensive,” said Dunbar. “So, my goal is to make this channel self-sufficient - generating advertising revenue that pays to create future content.”
He is also selling books, supplies and other items related to Windsor chair making at his website makeawindsor.com.
