It appeared in Current Work in the February 2003 issue of FWW. It is filled with paste wood filler, sealed with sanding sealer, and spray finished with clear lacquer. The piece is adapted from patterns published in the book, "Making Classic Chairs: A Craftsman's Chippendale Reference," By R. Clarkson. His plan called for a hairy paw foot, while I chose to do the ball and claw.
