Andre, I have one small suggestion for future projects like this one: I've used joiners myself quite a bit for my own projects, so I have an idea about what happens when they are used. Consider using a single piece of wood, smaller in diameter than the seat to place on the bottom to take the strain off the joints in case someone sits on the edge of the seat and not directly in the center. For example, if the seat is 16" in diameter, consider gluing a single piece of circular wood anywhere from 12" to 14" in diameter to the bottom of the seat. Then, when you attach the seat to the legs, the screws will pass through the bracing piece AND into the original seat material. This will take the strain off the joints, just in case. I've made small table tops using joiners and I always glue a smaller "bracing piece" to the bottom, just in case. By the way, I like how you finished to wood to retain some of the natural patina. Great work as always!
Absolutely Beautiful! I understand the need to speed up the action because some folks are not about the journey, just the destination. I would have really enjoyed a slower speed so I could thoroughly enjoy my glass of wine🍷Great Job👏👏👏
I actually really appreciate the silence. Personally I'll probably never do this work so I've no need to know exactly how to do it. Nonetheless these videos are amazing!
Nice piece. Question though: how did you ensure the screws in the center block weren’t crossing and running into each other with all four legs going into that single block?

Very cute stool. I’d have put the steel band on the outside of the legs I think, but I really love this idea.
a very well designed stool,made from a old barrel,and very well made also,definatley gets my thumbs up
Very creative !! Enjoy your videos. Love the high speed.
One at home...Love it!
You're a pure artist!
Liked the video and finished project. I am curious though if the top section where the legs and seat attach will stand the test of time.
The way I drink,I could have a house full of cool furniture in no time😀
EDWARD Hendersen Do it! I have a wine rack made from wooden wine bottle carriers. :)
Now that is very creative.
Muy buen trabajo !!!

You can always speed up/ slow down videos! But I think it’s only possible on a desktop/ laptop. :)
Wonderful video :)
This is like asmr for me lol
Super Cool!
So awesome
Beautifully crafted....❤ what did you use for the finish?
Lovely work! I can't help but think if it was a bit shorter and a shelf on the bottom, it would make a nice bed stand 🤔
That's cool
Neat!

I love this so much! What was the tool you used for drilling the holes in the seat for the wooden pegs?
Man you reallyneed a vice on that bench
Nice piece. Question though: how did you ensure the screws in the center block weren’t crossing and running into each other with all four legs going into that single block?
I think a 6x6 or 8x8 block would be better
...nothing like a bar stool that already smells like booze..lol..nice work
How big is the square block in middle??
What finish did you use?
I think I would have put the steel ring on the outside, like it was on the barrel.
What angle did you cut the ends?
Though this was a restoration video
It is.
It is - kinda. But maybe preservation is a better word. :)
Let’s make a cheap, quick and easy bar stool
Oh forget the fact that I’m in a workshop with 150k worth of tools. lol
All the gear and no idea! Really? cutting old iron strapping without a guard on the grinder! You're gonna get someone hurt!
