Re: Maloof Rocker - Roughing into SketchUp
Morning Tim,Admire the post.I built a few of these some years ago ,using the magazine article and a pbs video I taped.Since the seat blank is large, it is made of pieces with mating faces slightly beveled to produce a curved blank when viewed from the front.I suppose this affects the leg joint geometry for the seat.Could this be done in Sketchup by making the necessary adjustments to the flat seat ,starting from the point you are at?Regards,Denis

Hello Tim, Been fillowing all your work carefully.Thanks for your help.The continuos arm is one of my favorites.I make one version with the arm laminated of continuous strips of either hickory or white oak,[1/8"x7/8" strips].I'm in the process of using your design to build a trial which is in the mold as we speak.Unfortunately,my computer,{or me},has lost the Sketchup program which refuses to open after a new program download so I'll have to wait on a new computer delivery next week.In the meantime,I can take pictures of the process,and, if you're interested,send them to you.You might be able to produce this in Sketchup.Its interesting because a lamination will only bend in the direction of the thin,1/8",dimension ,so the arm is formed taking a 180 degree twist at the quarterpoints. Regards,Denis M.
