Here I noticed that I didn&#8217;t account for the relative angle of the drill press table, or rather the entire drill press sitting on a sloped floor. This made my holes about 1.2 degrees off, which is kind of significant for a stool. Luckily there&#8217;s a way to fix it.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51430\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0081.jpg\" alt=\"how to make a wooden bar stool\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0081.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0081-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0081-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0081-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Above I cut out the template for the legs to sit against at 7 degree angle as per the plans.

this is to adjust the angle of the leg ends as well as the template to match the angle that you accidentally drilled for the dowel holes. In my case I drilled a 6 degree angle, so I re-cut the template to match 6 degrees, then I ganged all four legs together and cut the ends to 6 degrees. Making sure to align the legs together appropriately. After all was said and done it was still a fraction of a degree off, but that&#8217;s nothin a little manhandling can&#8217;t take care of!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0093.jpg\" alt=\"assembling a wood stool\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0093.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0093-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0093-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0093-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0091.jpg\" alt=\"DIY wood stool\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0091.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0091-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0091-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0091-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Using a plastic head mallet I tapped all the dowels into place to check for fit.

legs and seat down it&#8217;s time to round the corners of the legs. I clamp them to the table, slightly raised from the surface (by placing thin pieces of wood underneath) to help the router bit clear the clamp. There probably is a better way to clamp this, but this was quick and easy for me. I chose the 3\/8 rounding bit for the outer leg corners. Then the 1\/4&#8243; rounding bit for the inner 3 corners, fancy I know.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51449\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0111-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0114-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At this point I also rounded the seat edges with a 1\/4 rounding bit.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51451\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0116-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0118-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51453\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0119-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Then I remeasured everything to verify which ends were the top. I had realized a bit too late that I cut off the original mark made on the end of each leg. Always double check! After verifying the top of each leg I drilled pocket holes, one in each leg on an inside face. I will use this simple method to screw on the seat. You could use a number of ways to attach the seat including small L-brackets, and mortise and tenon if you have the patience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51454\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120.jpg\" alt=\"wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120\" width=\"900\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120-386x256.jpg 386w, https:\/\/www.mrlentz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wood-stool-diy-ho-to-make-bar-stool-tutorial_0120-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While everything is still unassembled it&#8217;s a good idea to sand it all down.

Originally I thought I would stain and coat the stool a darker color, then I remembered how I hate the smell of those chemical stains, and just hate using them. They do serve a purpose in some cases where you really need to protect the wood, but in my case the workshop stool wouldn&#8217;t be left out in the rain. If you do want to coat with some sort of stain, one good method is to use a coat of shellac, then a gel stain, then shellac again.
