Laminated Rocker Profile

Jun 12, 2008 1 Replies

I am rebuilding an antique rocker for my wife and need to totally replace the rockers.



I am clear on how to laminate the rockers themselves (I don't want to get into steaming and bending).



I am looking for suggestions on how to trim the bent laminations so they have a trapezoidal (wider at the bottom than at the top) cross section?

You can shape them with a spoke shave and handplane. I make my rockers with a band saw and shaves. Steam bending and laminations are not required.
