Sometimes things get beyond dirty. Last night, I was sitting at the computer writing about a red fox here at the place - when all the sudden, the bar stool/chair I was sitting on started leaning. There was no fixing it. The legs gave out on it.
Today, I went and found another bar stool I have out in the barn. That stool had good legs but the seat was beyond repair. I should have taken before pictures. It looked like both were headed for the burning pile.
Three options came to mind:
I could stand at the computer. No
We could buy a cheap Walmart stool. No
Or I could build one stool using parts from the two stools. Yes
It may not be pretty, but it's not going to fall apart either. Together, it is the last piece of furniture that my biological mother and father had before their divorce in 1974. I have no idea how old the chairs are. This one will work until we find a couple of bar chairs we like. Then it can go out to the barn to be used to sit on while working on stuff.
