This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the
PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the
straw badge in
round wood woodworking.
This BB is the building of a lightweight stool.
This is a simple form of chair meant to be made from a minimal amount of
wood and typically lacking a backrest. They are light enough to move around readily, yet solid enough to handle heavy use.
Aside from using a power drill instead of an auger, this is a classic option.
A viking chair style stool. It's a very simple version that can be set up and taken down easily. this one can be stored away in a relatively small space until needed.
To get certified for this BB provide photos or
video (less than 2 minutes) showing the following:
- Your chunks of wood that you are starting with
- Progress about halfway through, with the hand tools you have decided to use for this
- The final product
