Title: How to Build a Pub Table and Stools, Part 3: Stool Seats

Description:
http://www.Lowes.com/ShopClassLowe's Shop Class host, Keith Flippen, demonstrates the third step to building a pub table and stools. In this video, you will learn how to create the contoured stool seats.There are a lot of ways to create a curved stool seat, but this way is simple, even though it's a bit time consuming. These seats are made of 25 pieces of wood that give a nice layered look. Start by cutting the pieces with the miter and table saw. Then take one piece, measuring and marking the curve. Next, cut out the curve with the jigsaw. This is your template. Now you can use the template to trace the curve on the rest of the wood pieces. Use a band saw or a jig saw to cut the remaining pieces. Once all are cut, line them up. Apply glue to the faces and clamp them together carefully. Set them aside and let them dry overnight. Once the seat is dry, use sanders to smooth out the curve. You can repeat these steps to build the other three seats.

Feb 10, 2012 - We suggest using the jigsaw method instead of the router as mentioned in the video. It may be tiring, but you'll have more uniform results.Thank you for watching the Lowe's YouTube Channel. --Lowe's

Mar 7, 2012 - What about making a jig with a bandsaw then clamping to your lengths of timber and using the router should be less sanding this way would take a while though hope it helps.

Jan 17, 2012 - If anyone knows of a way to do this reasonably without a band saw I'd love to hear it.Using a Jig saw would work but i think would get kinda tiring. Could route some of the material away starting at the middle lowest spot and work your way out and shallower until it had the basic curved shape. That is if you have a router. I see a router to be much more attainable than a band saw. And it doesn't take up a corner of your work area.Anyway, if you know of a good way let us know.
