Project Information
I had one these old tractor seats laying in my shop for over two years and even though the seat was rusted out I thought I could stretch myself a little and weld it up. As you can see in picture two, I used an old plow blade to patch the hole. It took some heating and hitting to make it fit but the seat is very comfortable. I made the base from spalted maple and have enjoyed the two projects of wood and metal coming together. The legs are attached with mortise and tenons with also metal at the base for support. This project is very sturdy and will be used to teach from during a Wednesday night class. Hope it will inspire someone!
