I am beginning to think I may need a woodworking design site for all my stuff.
This is a very rough proof.of concept. It needs hours of finishing to be ready for sale. It took about 30 minutes to design and build to this point. Any suggestions?

- Mono, it's supposed to have the shape of a barrel. I think you're right about raising the braces. They won't be used as a foot rest so it might look better andlemmy_k
- be stronger. I wish I could flatten out the hoops, I'd use those as a foot rest .lemmy_k

- it looks properly shonky... why not make it stronger and more elegant by crossing the legs into an x?hans_glib
- Uan, it might need some reinforcement. I will figure that out once I get it closser to finished, it appears that most out there have more than what I've used.lemmy_k
- Hans, it's supposed to resemble a barrel.lemmy_k
- I think bowing them in would still retain the essence of a barrel. It might not resemble, but it would be clear what it’s source was.monospaced
