25 pounder wood seat
If anyone has an original 25 pounder seat, could they tell me how thick the wood is? I am going to guess that it is 11" round, the same as the metal base underneath, but perhaps that should be confirmed as well.

I have the same problem with mine. The seat looks like a giant cake!

Kind of what I don't want. They have some nice laminated pine at home depot for a decent price, but it is 3/4 thick. I think that will be too thin and sandwiching it will end up 1-1/2 thick which might be too much.
I thought of buying a couple wood barstools and using the tops off them. They are in stock at Dirk Leegwaters site, but between the Euro exchange and the postage, they are a little too rich for my poor blood. |
