The November 2004 class #36 seminar has just concluded, with resounding success! Robert had
students from across the nation, and Canada in attendance. The session went as planned without a hitch. Over the
four day period, the students watched as Robert took a stack of mesquite lumber, and transformed it into a finished
rocker. Robert had a guest instructor, Jamie Norwood, assist in many of the procedures. Between the two of them,
a beautiful rocking chair took form. For an idea of what happens during each of the four days, click on the following
images.

*** DAY ONE ***
|
|
| Welcome to Robert Hensarling's seminar page. In these photos, we will show and explain just what the course will
entail when you attend one of his classes. Usually, we meet at 8:00 AM the first morning. Robert likes to get everyone
comfortable, with coffee, donuts, and introductions. Each participant will tell a little bit about ourselves, and
what we do in the everyday world. Starting promptly at 9:00 AM, Robert gets the class started. This will be a busy
four days for Robert, but you'll be able to relax and enjoy the show. You'll receive a detailed manual, complete
with text, photographs, and a full set of actual chair templates. |

*** DAY TWO ***
|
|
| On day two, at the beginning, the seat is removed from the clamps. It is shaped, sanded, and the outer profile
is routed over. Robert then places it on a five gallon plactic bucket, and dry clamps the front, and rear legs
in place, so that the arms can be attached and fitted. |
