Doesn't look as narrow as I think I woulda done. My seat across the top is about 8" and tapers down from there, yours looks wider.

HAHA.. classic
again great work. What material did you use to bolster the seat up and then just foam?
Covered with vinyl?

Looks great, like what Cat should have put on it to begin with.

I bet you could sell a few if you wanted

Looks great! I have a question for you, where do you buy your foam? I am also building my own seat and want to cut the foam myself. Then off to an upolster to finish the job.

Click to expand...

Closed cell for the base layers is the lightest and easiest. You can ever drill 3 or 4 inch holes in it to lighten even more. I use a dual density foam for the top. Not sure what Metso uses.
