Can we have a home made furniture / cool room thread?

Im planning on moving out in a few months, after saving up some cash.

Want some ideas to make my place a bit more cool and bearable than a blank box.

Extra points for pics of cheap cool stuff, even more if you provide a how-to guide.

Usually don't have this kind of stuff in my house, but in the shop we do sofas/chairs out of old car seats that we take out of the projects when replacing with a racing bucket or something. It mostly just requires making a simple wood frame for the seat mounts to bolt to, if we don't use the seat mounts for the new seats.

There was a friend around here who had fenders and a hood + 2 wheels under the fender over his bed for a while. Mostly as a joke, it was just held together with small tabs, trying to get a picture if I can find it.

Here's someone's office chair with an old car seat.

How do you keep the stuff in the pouches from falling out? Or am I misinterpreting the design

>> No.137586

>>137585
It just folds down, you wouldn't try to stuff the pouches so gravity shouldn't really act on whatever you have in them. Making the front of the pouch come up farther, or having a top flap that you tie shut would be a good adjustment.

When /diy/ first started I remember heaps of "cool room" / diy furniture threads.

/k/ is where all these threads used to be before this kid board was created. it was better when all the diy stuff was on /k/ because most of the hipster liberal kids stayed out of /k/.

now look how liberal kid infested this board is.

Only a kid would request pictures to be posted instead of posting them himself. Typical liberal, always want someone else to do your work for you.
