    Instead of milled dowels I would like to see one made from unprocessed wood.

    You mean staves on end, like a giant butcher's block? I've got just the toy to carve that with, too. A thing that goes in the angle-grinder - sort of like a rotary chain-saw. Wood just vanishes before it.

    Friggin' awesome!

    Skipweasel, go for it. If you do, be sure to show up photos of the work in progress and that tool.

    Can't afford the wood at the moment - my router's just gone smelly and stopped mid Viking shield.

    That's a lot of felt floor protectors that chair will need.

    That's quite lovely. Brings to mind pipe organs.
