steel, basswood, rosewood dye extract, shellac, black plastic
This entire cushion and backrest were carved using a CNC router. Additionally, I learned basic TIG welding while making the chair legs. The caramel colour finish is a blend of rosewood-soaked alcohol and shellac, with the rosewood being sourced from wood shavings produced during my guitar-building project
