Dragonfly42 Report post Posted September 13, 2017 So I was walking around the antique store and found a neat looking stool I decided I wanted for 20 bucks. The top had some cracks soooo why not. Leather practice! It's rubbed down with oil and I'll start the dyeing tomorrow. Super excited Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jbrandon Report post Posted September 13, 2017 The stool that's in my workshop is just a plain bar stool that I've been wanting to add something like that to. How are you going to attach it? I was considering brass tacks but don't want to be sitting on those with no padding.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm planning on using the tacks with a half inch of foam underneath Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Willie0 Report post Posted September 15, 2017 I am really looking forward to seeing the pictures when you get this finished. Your carving is well done and the rope/basket weave circle is very interesting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YinTx Report post Posted November 18, 2017 Indeed, beautiful work. Just curious: has the oil dissipated yet? YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodneywt1180b Report post Posted December 25, 2017 It's too pretty to sit on. If I could do that I'd frame it and hang it on a wall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
