badly cupped boards

Hey there people-

If you have a badly cupped board (across the width) don't despair,
there's potential for a whole bunch of butt-comfy stools there.

Just saw it into short lengths, a foot or so, add legs at each corner
and ails to hold it all together and you've got a collection of comfy
places to sit.

You need a bandsaw to cut the curves of the cupped board, that you've
traced on the rail material, but that's it.

Good summer arts and crafts show sale material :-)

hardwood ones you might have? How bout it? <g>

I'm sorry, but trading in ash is illegal.

Sorry you don't have the time, Mike. OTOH I would love to actually
sell something or get paid for the work I do!

Sure. 100 bf of cupped wood per 1 bf of good wood sound about right?
