I'm wanting to mimic the bar setup on my kitchen island found on this page: https://www.benchcrafted.com/swingawayseat If I had a welder, I'd love to make something similar myself. While I'm sure these are high quality, a budget is always in place. Anyone know of other potential sources for something similar? ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.

Saw those, too. Sharp, but CHA CHING! Also, I'm musing about the mounting. I'd have each one of these bolted to the island between cabinets; it would look similar to the photo in the OP, but with a cabinet in between each stool. I've considered something like a metal I-beam, mounted vertically, inside the island (like this table). The bottom could be secured to the concrete slab. Then each stool can be bolted through a solid metal mount. I could also use the bottom part of each support to mount a foot rail. Any other ideas? A wooden 4x4 may also work, but that takes up more internal space. I need to get a MIG welder. Note: Come to think of it, I could totally buy the table in the link, above, then cannabilize the 4 stools. That way, I got 4 stools AND a cool table for the price of 4 of the ones from Benchcrafted.

Thanks. It will be a while; we have 5.37 acres paid for and the house plans nearly finalized, but we haven't selected a builder yet. We'll be putting the plans out for bid soon. May be a year or so before the final product is finished, but I'll get some pics up after we've settled in. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.
