Seat Build - Part 1

So, while my engine sits in pieces and I wait for the magical Piston Ring fairy to be done with her vacation, I decided to make an attempt at building a seat.

I bought 2 pieces of 16 gauge steel from Lowes and using a combination of Tin Snips and a Dremel, I was able to cut out the shapes I needed. I bent the metal to shape using a large metal hammer and some pieces of 2 x 4.



Not looking too pretty, but hopefully once I have the pieces sanded, painted, then riveted together, it will look a little better. Then I can get some foam glued on and finish it all up with some Vinyl. Stay tuned.
