Seat Construction Started


There are 5 thrift stores on my way home from work that I have been rummaging through and finally found a gem: an old foldable high chair seat. I know it doesn't look like much, but imagine it reupholstered with thick foam and leather with brass tacks along the seams and brass tubing instead of stainless steel. I think it's going to work and the scale of the child's seat is actually perfect.

I've removed the pad from my current seat and will use the metal mount and connect it to this new seat. I tried it out last night and it is totally comfortable. Here's a photo of it mostly fabricated. I need to replace all the rivets with bolts but all in all it's looking pretty SP!
