Hello All;

I finished building the composite/foam/upholstered seatback, and devising a simple mounting method that allows me quick access to what will be the small storage area behind the seat when the bulkheads are in place.

If you'd like to see a How-To, I've got a detailed sequence of photos on my web site. Just follow the link below, Select "Finishing & Fitout," and scroll to the bottom where you'll find "Seat Construction."

Credit where credit is due - These are ideas that for the most part stem from the open posters on this board. I'm only implementing, combining, and improvising on ideas initiated by people like Nick, Joe, and LOTS of other neat builders. That is what is so great about this forum - Information sharing. Here's my share . . .

Best Regards, Spidey
