      I think I will initiate (later)a topic on wood grain. Because I have a 1000 questions about it. But not now, I am not yet bored with my chair. Any suggestions. What do you think Dave?

            Well, it's red.

            How do you propose to build it? how high is the seat? It looks like it would be difficult to get out of without it tipping forward.

              Now it's green. πŸ˜„

              tipping forward: yes Dave, i've take into account this; the gravity centre i.e distribution of mass is (in theory)at the back making stability of the structure. But who knows?

              Thanks to all.

                Please, is there nice wood textures all around? I found several but all are not well grained.
                Yes, grain became a obsession for me.

                Thanks.

                  You should invest some time searching the forums as it has lots of user contributions regard wood images. But this link is a good place to start.

                    You can go through the links here. I think you'll find some decent wood grain materials at some of those links. Arroway has some nice, high resolution wood grain images. It depends upon what you want, though. Do you want seamless or do you want extreme realism? Real wood grain isn't seamless. That will be more difficult to come up with, too.

                      O'Brien, I have only a two-sided brain, and i've searched for a while, but seems that it's hidden somewhere. By the way what do you means by rule#1. πŸ˜‰

                      Thanks Dave for your support. I really appreciate.

                        Is there a limitation on the dimensions of attached images? ❓

                          There is a limit on the size of the display window. I generally put my images on a web-based album and link to them in my post rather than uploading them here.

                            And that's why the forum ends up with no longer available images (that have been deleted on the 3rd party servers).

                                    "may not be very practical" that what all woodworkers have said to me. I'll retouch it for sure.
                                    Thanks.
