Dining chair / Scandinavian design / metal / wooden ergonomic, with removable cushion The BassamFellows Spindle Chair Series offer a new take on a classic design, a descendent of the iconic English Windsor Chair. One first notices its weightless quality, which BassamFellows achieved by using metal for the chair’s legs and spindles, giving the illusion of two floating surfaces. A counterpoint to the metal spindles is the chair’s timber elements, including an ultra-comfortable ergonomic seat carved from solid wood. The Spindle Counter and Bar Chairs recast their predecessor’s dimensions in modern, highly comfortable counter and bar heights. The illusion of two floating surfaces has been created by the use of metal for the chair’s legs and spindles and an elegantly carved backrest and armrest. Available as dining table chairs or counter height chairs, both versions feature commercial grade swivel returns, giving them broad application for a range of settings, notably London’s all-brass Le Chabanais Restaurant.

Pottery Barn Kids offers a wide variety of kids’ play tables and chairs, perfect for dressing up a playroom, a bedroom or a sunny and strategic corner of your home. Children gravitate to the brightly colored chairs made in just their size, while the wide open tabletop beckons for large paper rolls and freshly sharpened crayons. An artfully designed play table space can incorporate smart storage elements nearby for maximum usability, use layers of lighting to brighten the play area and even establish areas for children to proudly display their creations.
Our collection of children’s play tables includes options for toddlers and older children, with varying heights to accommodate kids at any stage. An activity table that sits low to the ground is an excellent choice for toddlers or small children. Perfectly sized for playing with train sets, building with blocks or stacking cups, our low height activity and craft tables make play easy and fun. For children able to sit on their own, pair a colorful child-sized chair or two with an art play table. Older children will enjoy having their own space for coloring, creating or homework. We also offer play tables with grow-with-you leg sets, an innovative idea to accommodate children of all ages and needs. These tables have interchangeable legs that allow parents to adjust the height of the play table from low to desk height.Many of our play tables have matching chairs available, or mix and match for a more eclectic look. We offer a variety of children’s chairs, with styles ranging from a dressy oval-back fabric chairs to a schoolhouse inspired slat-back.

Keeping play materials nearby will help to ensure that everything is easy for children to grab when they’re ready to play and put away themselves. A clear acrylic play table mat kept on the table’s surface protects it from scratches and marks and can even double as a display space for pictures or artwork placed underneath.

As your children use their play table to produce art masterpieces, rotate their creations through an art gallery wall of frames. Not only will kids enjoy spending time together creating, but they will take pride in displaying and talking about their wonderful designs.Making exact copy reproductions of spindles looks difficult, but by following three key guidelines you’ll get a perfect spindle every time — no matter how many you want to make.
Whether it’s a chair rung, stairway baluster, tool handle or a table leg, if it’s broken the chances are good you won’t be able to buy a replacement that’s an exact match. It’s the same situation when you want to copy the spindles when making a reproduction of an antique item. That’s why turning custom spindles is one of the most common tasks for the lathe in the home shop. But whether you’re trying to make an exact single replacement or reproduction, or you’re building a project from scratch that requires multiple turned spindles, the key is getting them to match. Taking a look at the intricate curves and profiles on an existing spindle, the prospect of creating a duplicate may seem daunting at first. In reality, however, the process is straightforward as long as you keep three things in mind: I recently completed a reproduction 19th-century ballot box that featured a lathe-turned handle on the original. Using that handle as an example, let’s examine the process of copying a spindle turning.
STEP 1: Take exact measurements of the original spindle you want to copy and sketch out the general profile on a piece of stiff paper or cardboard. You don’t have to worry about your artistic ability here; the important thing is to mark each differing diameter and the exact points where the profile changes on your sketch. In Photo 1, you can see that I’ve used a caliper to transfer spindle diameters to their appropriate spots on my sketch, and then extended lines from those points to the edge of the paper. STEP 2: Prepare a spindle of appropriate length. When turning spindles, I like to cut a crosshatch into the ends of the turning blank so the workpiece centers quickly and seats solidly on the lathe (see Photo 2). Step 3: Turn the workpiece to create a cylinder that matches the widest dimension of your original spindle. In Photo 3, I’m using a roughing gouge to make a cylinder of 1″ in diameter, which matches the largest diameter of my original spindle handle in three places.
Check the diameter of your workpiece frequently to ensure a uniform diameter along the length of the turning. A caliper, shown in Photo 4, is an essential tool for accurate spindle turning; if you don’t have one, get one. STEP 4: With the lathe turning at a low speed, use a pencil to transfer the key marks from your sketch to the cylinder as in Photo 5. Some of these marks will disappear quickly as you begin cutting, but they act as essential guides to get your cuts started in the correct locations. STEP 5: Kick the speed on the lathe up a notch and begin cutting the profile using your pencil marks, the sketch and the original spindle as a guide (see Photo 6). The crucial thing to remember here is to work slowly, removing only a little bit of stock at a time. The idea is to sneak up on your target diameters while slowly shaping the workpiece to match the original. Note that I’m using a small round scraper here, but you may prefer a spindle gouge for this step. STEP 6: As the spindle begins to take shape, stop the lathe often and compare your turning to the original piece (see Photo 7).
