Of course if there were something to forgive. I should've thought about it and I might've figured it out myself.

So the chair is going to be bent wood and wicker? I was thinking wrought iron and strip stock. Wrought and wicker would be a nice combination.

Somewhere I have concept sketches of twisted wire chairs I'd like to make. They're sort of like soda fountain chairs but patterned after prehistoric critters.

I look forward to seeing the finished products.
