stool table

Music Stool (seconds as an occasional table)

Sometimes at the end of a day I am too tired to stand to practice my trumpet.  I needed a stool.  But the stool will be in our lounge room and I wanted it to be useful when we are sitting there with visitors, rather than just being in the way.

We also had some shaped sticks of ash that we bought cheap years ago and intended to use to make bar stools.  It seemed a good idea that the plan would be based around using these.

This project was quite quickly drawn up to my size and use requirements but it sat in the queue of projects, frequently bumped by the need to make boxes for galleries or items of furniture for other people.  When Shane began work on it (during the final stages of making our bed) it took only about 4 hours to make, spread over about 2 weeks.
