      One way of making a curved seat might be with the use of something like the X-Carve.

        True that, Mike. If you had a CNC machine in your shop, you could certainly cut the shape that way.

          Yes for that manner with hand tools one could cut a series of arc-shaped pieces and laminate them (or get them done at a [friend's?] shop then laminate and finish at home).

            Dave, cool stool, really like the first image. Fyi curved seat for us old guys means drawknife, spokeshaves and compass planes!

              You ought to take a look at this. No drawknife, spokeshave or compass plane. πŸ˜‰

                Excuse my ignorance but what does NPR mean in this context? I have seen others refer to npr but the only definition I know is National Public Radio. Just curious.

                    I always think of Public Radio when I see it, too. In this context it stands for Non-Photo Realistic.
