I found an old gas strut bar stool at the tip. I used some mesh for the top, works a treat...

I too like Raymond used an old gas strut bar stool base that someone was throwing out. I then just attached an old chopping block for the base. Total cost $0.

Thanks Kirky,

Currently in the process of thinning extensively and wiring.

Fingers crossed I will find the time in the next couple weeks to finish it, I've been trying since the start of March haha.
