iPhone perhaps? The web is being deluged with sideways pictures thanks to Apple's non-standard way of defining picture orientation.

Nah, I used my Nikon D60 and I see when I loaded them to the website it rotated the pictures and resized them. No biggie.

That turned out great! What did you start out with for those legs? I like the design of them.

I like those. The only thing I would consider different is putting the wood seat closer to the base that it sits on. As to the profit, tools in trade for work is always a good thing :p

It could go down alittle. I don't know if you can tell but it is a trailer hub flipped upside down I welded to the spindle a 1/4 inch plate. The plate was hard to level with a traditional torpedo level. As I put tack welds it would pull out off level. So I ended up using a mag base and dial indicator, then welded it where it was high to pull it into level. So I got the spin to within .030 run out which passed my test pilot spin for wobbling. The thing that bothers me about this project is the hub itself was not weldable so I welded to the 4 bolts and I just hope they never push through. I know I have taken them out before with heat and a BFH so it would seem unlikely someone could sit on it and push the bolts through.

I get them from Mid Carolina Steel, not sure who they get them from.

That's good to know. I would really like to become more involved with projects like that once I finish my automotive projects. I'm tired of working on rusty junk projects! Give me a simple project, some fresh metal to build it from, and a clean area to weld it in and I'll be more than happy at this point!

Them there legs, they are supposedly made for handrail balusters. I get them from a local supplier of ornamental iron works.
