Yes, the shaping so far has been rewarding. I’m looking forward to being able to fair the curves between more of the chair components as it comes together.

Now the fun begins. The most gratifying part of the project is to take the angle grinder to the piece and start the rounding and transitions. I still have some work to do today on the arms as I left the transition between arm and back leg a bit too angular. At the stage you are at now, you are just getting rid of the extra wood. This will make a great wintertime project. The comfort of this chair is amazing. I was expecting a lot but the first "sit" was beyond expectation.
