  • I bought a used pair of these Recaro Ergomed car seats for my truck but until I finish the bodywork on it I want to use it as a lounge chair.

    I've tried a couple of different designs to use a car seat as a computer chair, on mine "RECARO" is spelled differently (K-I-A) they are unbelievably comfortable for computer work and hard wearing.
    I appreciate they are goin gin your truck but as you spent so much time carving the frame can I make just a tiny suggestion? Carve out a small rectangular cover for the metal mount sticking out the front. Would just finish it off nicely.

    someone gave me a old car seat and I'm searching for ideas on how to mount legs and absolutely love the design of your arms/legs for this chair. where did you get or how did you make the template you used to cut out the legs for the chair?

    • @Ollaris
      @Ollaris  3 роки тому

      Honestly I just set the seat on a box that felt the right height and used cardboard and a hot glue gun to glue together the shape i liked. After that i Transfered over the cardbord template to a piece of thin wood ( the stuff you see in the video was a piece of backboard from a dresser that i found in the dumpster) and cut it out with a Jigsaw.

    When you need to peel off something that has been glued with hot glue, spray 92% alcohol that loosens easily without damaging the piece like you did. Hope this helps! Hug.
