“A shaving horse goes together with a drawknife like peanut butter and jelly”, says chairmaker Curtis Buchanan. In this video, Peter Follansbee shows you how to build an effective shaving horse based on his work with Jennie Alexander and traditional English patterns. Peter’s design features an adjustable work surface and two uprights connected by a foot treadle and a crossbar. Pushing forward with your feet makes the crossbar grip your stock tightly to the work surface, leaving your hands free to use the drawknife, spokeshave, and other tools. Built with only a few hand tools and some roughly hewn wood, this shaving horse is both simple to make and a pleasure to use.
