Thanks,
I remember it being  quite challenging for a 14 year old

  I agree, it's sad that kids these days don't get to experience shop and that sense of accomplishment  that comes with it.

Variation on a joint stool.  NO, it's not where you sit and light up.  My first version - first project in college - featured the turned look, only it was patterned sawed legs.

First projects in MS were really just making up boards and then a box.  Looooong time ago. Used to bring in some tools once or twice a year up at school, and the class would contribute to making a board the old fashoined way.
Better to follow the leader than the pack. Less to step in.

IMHO, that would be well worth the shipping cost.

Neat old stool, my 1st project was a "contemporary modern" style book case made in 1965.
