  • dear bubble, i am absolutely stumped. i saw photos of this easy chair’s woven back rest, and my mind is just completely blanking on how this works.

    there’s a wooden frame, it is visibly spiral-wrapped in cane (or rattan or whatever), and the strands only travel between opposing sides in the front. there doesn’t seem to be room for any of the strands to make an about-face so it can travel back to the other side in front. if they keep their twisting direction, they’d have to travel on the back side of the frame, which they evidently don’t.

    any ideas anyone? (if you can boost or ping someone in the know, i’d be most grateful because i’m set to lose sleep over this)

    photos of chair’s back rest from front and back attached.

    Calling #typewriter users! Does anyone know where to source a manual for this? (Panasonic electric t36, or is there somewhere other than the top front to find the model number? 😅) This should get me back to writing when my hands are sore and I can't do screens, so I'm excited! I've used a similar one at work, but could use a refresher on maintenance, and if anyone knows where to find replacement parts/ribbons I would appreciate it! #maintenance #repair #vintage #tech #diy #boost #writing

    Grmpf, not the best day. Excavator was in the way of something else, so I drove it out, decided to do some quick jobs to charge the battery up and then parked it outside the barn. Upon turning the key again, nothing at all, not even the solenoid clicking.Keyswitch ok, battery ok, so I had to trace wires (no diagram, although it's not complicated) until finding the culprit: A failed crimp on a ring terminal where the instrument wiring connects to the starter/battery plus.Easy fix, put everything back together, two hours down the drain. 😮‍💨 #Excavator #MiniExcavator #Repair #DIY #Homestead #Electrical #Troubleshooting

    Here is my new stick chair. I started from an Irish-style model from Christopher Schwarz, and experimented with the front leg angle and positioning, the backrest shape and the hand shape ; I also made it a bit wider and a inclined it a bit more than two fingers. It will stand at the end of our dining table, were I hope my children and the cat will fight to sit in it. #woodworking
