Furniture anatomy.

[garywayne]

Hi folks.

Does anyone know of a web site that covers furniture anatomy?

 

[Anonymous]

would that be from the ergonomics/anatmoy or to do with furniture construction?

 

[garywayne]

Sorry folks.

Parts of furniture.

How about this: Furniture Glossary

 

[garywayne]

Nice link Roger.

What I am really looking for is a site that shows the individual parts of furniture and there names, (the parts names).

I appreciate that there might not be a singular site.

 

[Roger]

Then this: Illustrated Furniture Glossary

Ploget,
Many thanks for that link.

Cheers
Chris.

 

[garywayne]

Thanks again Roger.

Yet another good link, yet the inevitable "but", Sorry.

what I am really after is an illustration of furniture with there part names.

Am I asking for to much.

Gary, you might be better off with a book rather than a site. :-k My old stand-by, the Collins Complete Woodworker's Manual, has most bits and pieces explained in the design section - but there must be loads of others.

Cheers, Alf

Good suggestion Alf - logic rules :wink:

Also try some of the Judith Miller books Gary. They go into antique furniture of differing periods with the various points and parts illustrated. You can pick them up for a song at car boot sales

Thank you Alf, and thank you Roger for your patients.
