this is a small walnut stool that i made for my grandpa. he wants to use it as a sidetable/drink holder. it’s a remake of a stool he found at his local hardware store. his grandpa had made it (my great-great-grandfather), so it’s got some age to it. unfortunately, the original isn’t for sale. i was able to take some pictures of it, and make this one for him. it was a cool feeling to make a copy of something like that, given it’s origins. i’m happy with how it turned out, and think he will be too.
