The making of our Relief Stool

Relief the only thing that comes to mind when you sit in this seat with its exaggerated curvature and even support all along the surface of the seat, the word ergonomic comes to mind. Inspired by the 1950s tractor seats that seemed to comfortable to be metal!
Specs: Seat dimensions- 1 ¾ “ thick, 19 ¾ “ wide, and 14”

Available seat heights-25” stools fit standard 36” kitchen counters, 27” stools fit 38” counters and bar tops, and 31” stools fit 42” bar tops. Custom Heights and seat sizes available.

Heres a few pics, enjoy!


Roughly laying out the seat shape which will be chiseled, shaped with a grinder, and sanded right here in our shop.


The seat after lots of handwork.


The incredibly strong and classic dowel through tennon and wedge joinery is used on the legs.


Fine tuning with a little hand sanding.


The very comfortable relief seat just before applying finish
