    Kyle,
    I am truly amazed, and can't fathom how this could be your first Maloof type project. You are gifted, especially since you only looked at pictures and then went to work. Your use of the Woods and colors is wonderful. Keep up the great work and we will be waiting for your next masterpiece. Well done....
    Regards, Ken

    Wow

    How is it to sit in? That' s one sweet chair. The seat grain is so perfect.

    Wow, you did a great job on the chair. I've been wanting to attempt one of these for long time now. I just love the look of these chairs and truly admire Sam Maloof. To think, these chairs go for $25,000 if you buy one from Sam. Did I mention the 3 to 4 year waiting list? It must be nice being Sam! Again, good job, I hope you enjoy the chair.

    Fabulous chair - do you have any pictures of the construction?

    A couple of questions
    Is the seat back steam bent?

    Is the chunky tapered piece that connects the chair arm to the leg a separate piece or was it made as part of the arm?
