If there's one thing that always bothered me about the aesthetics of Monsters, it's that they mostly look like the mess that is my workshop!

been doing the padding!

Here is the seat being made… I have used closed cell EFP30 foam, which is firm, but has the advantage that it can be sanded to shape. it will be covered with some 6mm foam and trimmed. Trimming is one of the jobs I cant do at home!
