| Turning the legs, stretchers
& armposts. Straight grained blocks of wood
are turned on the lathe to the desired shape. Traditional Windsor chairs
often use maple or birch wood for these because of its strength.
Traditionally, Windsor chairs may have bamboo style turnings
or more elaborate baluster turnings (see Chair
Features for illustrations).
