Tractor Seat Shop Stool

Tractor Seat Shop Stool AG WORLD 32-3-22 "I keep it in my workshop where it makes a great conversation piece," says Bob Kemp, Pulteney, N.Y., who made an adjustable Deere barstool that mounts on a horseshoe base. The seat and horseshoes are painted Deere green while the telescoping pipe that holds the seat is painted yellow. Kemp started with an unpainted antique cast iron tractor seat from a 1947 Deere tractor, which his son-in-law had bought on eBay and given to him as a Christmas present. He sandblasted, primed, and painted the seat. He welded some old horseshoes together for the base and then used two pipes that slide inside each other for height adjustment.
