That's excellent work.

Here is my question though. My grand parents had a few of these stools when I was growing up and I haven't been able to find a pattern for the actual leg set-up. Is that something I can find on the net somewhere??

Not sure how you'd make one, I'm not that handy. But you could purchase one and make your own seat.

Beener......I got the legs at Home Depot, and our very own UKRay sent me the tri-bolts. Ray was also gracious enough to send the patterns for the stools themselves. You might want to hit him up. And, BTW, thank you for the kind words.

What I think is that you need to change your nick name on here! Great job.

I was at Home Depot today looking for legs for the 3-legged stool.... they said they did not have them.

where did you find yours?

Luke........I think they are actually spindles or something used for stair railings. Or you might try looking for table legs. I think in our HD, the table legs and these are in the same area.

Art....thanks for the vote of confidence, but I still think the name fits. Especially when compared to all the Masters that are in here. But, I do thank you for the compliments.

MADMAX....sorry I didn't reply to you sooner. Actually, they are quite comfortable. Obviously, they aren't like your recliner at home, but at a rodeo or camping or whatever, they are pretty nice. And, they're pretty sturdy. My son (16 yrs. old, 6'2", 198#) sits in his all the time, and as of yet hasn't hit the floor!!!

I'm with Art on this one......Good job Rookie!

WOW!!!.......Thanks Hidepounder. You're one of those Masters I was referring to. I can only hope to take my leather work to your level. Thanks again for the compliment. It truly means alot to me to have one of the Masters give me an "atta boy".
