A Question Seat

[billio8]

I got the base metal, put foam, how do I make leather piece that matches the top and bottom with holes stitched leather??

go to the top of this forum and check out the "pinned" posts. a few different styles to look at. Davids "Christian seat" with a "top and bottom" leather piece or I believe the others are for wet formed seats with a "top and sides"

I do not find what I'm looking .. maybe I can not explain it well.

I read the post at the top but can not find answer to my question

form the basis of what I go out with leather? 1 cm or 2 cm?? and to create the part above that pairs perfectly...

Billio8,

I did a quick search using the advanced search under motorcycle gear forum. I know there are topics about what you are looking for try this link. basically it says if the pan is covered with 3/4 inch foam (that's almost 2cm) then he makes his leather 3/8 inch larger than the pan (or half of the foam thickness) and the top and bottom are the same. this is how I understand it. Maybe Dave will chime in here, since this is not my seat style. hope this helps but I'm not sure if this is what you are asking

Thanks Billio8 for asking & Murse for pointing the right direction. I've been trying to figure out this same subject recently, so this sure helped me too.
