Bill MTD lawn mower seat. This seat will make you a pro steel player much more comfortable than a piece of foam on plywood . An much more support for your back. Northern tool has a good selection of lawn tractor seats. Make a bench long enough to hold seat an extra 10 inches or so to set your drinks ðŸ¹. |

I've never built my own seat, but I have invented a custom leveling system:

Haha.. actually that's the vinyl peeling off and you can see that backing or whatever it is showing through.
Since this thread is about pack seats. that particular seat is still setup in my studio, that pic was about 4 or 5 years ago maybe. That's an Ace pack seat, and it's as solid today as it was the day I bought it, sometime back in the mid-80s I think. It has a LOT of miles on it, still functional. I've been thinking about re-upholstering the seat and bringing it out of retirement. |

This is my old Sho-Bud seat with a back made out of a leg brace.
........This thing is really very comfortable, and I’ve had it since ‘99 |
