    I used M16 trapezoid thread.
    Nut is weld to pipe with tig. All other welds with 1.6mm ok 73.15 welding rod.

    Nut would have been possible to weld with stick too, but i wanted to protect threads from splatters, choosed the easiest way in that point. I wanted to design my stool with minimal visible welds, no actual reason for that, just like it that way.


    Swivel stool is usefull specially when filing, its easy to keep your position optional.
    With regular stool you need to stand up and move stool, make those little "micro movements" time after time around the workpiece.

    Also it helps when welding pipes / tubes too. It allows welder to move around the workpiece, without need to move position of the hands.

    To get more use from the stool, it has an option to use it as a extra support too.

    Specially with curved pipes, you can adjust the height and angle, to get support to desired spot.
    When seat is opened, you can find two V-grooves under it.

    Edit:

    Forgot to mention this.

    Mounting holes ain't at the same level. This allows to bolt it trough the leg.
