 Grandpas Rocker  Code # 22

Let me help you build an heirloom rocker. Anyone can do it with my Kit parts.

Kit parts: I will rough cut all the part for a custom rocker in the Maloof style. The full instruction manual with patterns. and colored pictures, to finish the rocker will be included, as well as lots of pictures on a CD.   The cost is $850 + packaging & freight. You could pay this much just for the wood.

Until stock lasts I have some Claro and Bastogne walnut, from the same stock Sam Maloof was shipped recently, which I will be selling for $2,500 for the cut kit parts. Code # 22 for kit info.

 The pictured rocker is made with Bastogne walnut. The kit rocker can be made in this style or others.  If accents, such as, Ivory, Ebony, Maple, Myrtle etc. are wanted they can be provided with applicable instructions for a small additional charge.

 

"You Build" (Seminar Rocker) Code # 21   If you prefer to make your own rocker (You-Build) I will give the personal (one-on-one) attention necessary while we construct your rocker (about one week). I supply the wood of your choice (so long as it is not toxic), all information, tools, patterns, jigs, shop space, adhesives and snacks. This includes the accent materials such as Ivory, Ebony, Bastogne, African Blackwood, Burled Mesquite etc. When you take your rocker home it will still need to be finish sanded and detailed using my supplied finish and instructions. For Mesquite wood the cost is $4,500 for the seminar help, wood etc. If you choose an exotic species of wood the cost will have to be adjusted .This is the best way to receive personal instructions, manual, jigs, etc and obtain a rocker. You can keep the rocker or sell this rocker at a profit to pay for the class. You end up with the ability to make custom rockers for free. For the "You-Build seminar rocker" please contact me about any week of the year. Code # 21 for "You-Build seminar rocker" info. Email me or give me a call if you have questions. bill@kappelusa.com OR call 435-283-3193.

 

Semi Rocker Code # 23:    if you would like me to semi complete a rocker the cost is $3,300 for White Oak  plus packaging & freight. Or add the cost of some exotic wood species you choose. You receive an assembled rocker plus the Backslats and Headrest parts plus the instruction manual. l will rough cut and assembled the rocker except for the Headrest and Backslats. You finish the rocker by shaping in the arm, leg and Headrest joints, then finish sanding. The Headrest and slats will have to be mounted after you finish sanding them. My instructions will give complete details about how to mount the Backslats and Headrest. The Backslat holes are drilled in the seat and Headrest. The Backslats will be sized with the tenon for both ends cut. The Headrest will be pre-fitted to the legs and Backslats, but will need to be sanded and glued in place. This is a good way to get a new rocker and still have the pride of your own work. call (435-283-3193) or email bill@kappelusa.com Code # 23 for semi rocker info.
