Measuring Furniture for Reproduction
with Philip Lowe
Creating plans for superior results
Reproducing a piece of furniture can be a challenge when you don't have a set of plans. In this video, Phil Lowe shows you how to take measurements off an existing piece, create a set of plans, and then reproduce the piece in the workshop. You'll learn how to make simple aids to take measurements without damaging the furniture and how to use these measurements to make a set of full-size plans. You'll see how to:
make freehand sketches
use story sticks to find dimensions
scribe profiles of curved parts
measure and analyze hidden joinery
make templates from your drawings
use templates to rough-out parts
