Building a rustic twig chair is a collaboration between the builder and nature.  The builder must look at each branch and think about how that natural bend or twist will become part of a comfortable chair.  Does it want to twist up, or down? Is it powerful or subtle. Does it need to be laid aside for another day.  The builder cannot force will on nature and get a nice chair. The builder must work in concert to create a pleasing chair.
Designing a chair that incorporates man-made items into a chair that also reflects the natural desires of the wood is an interesting process. Each of Rob's chairs tells a story.  Rob will work with you to tell your story.  Are you a skier, angler, couch potato, or cowboy?  Maybe you are into rusty tools and bicycle chains. You will be a part of the process of creating the perfect rustic twig chair for you.
