PM me if you're a reliable and competent woodworker able to make a bench seat for a Hobart coffee shop.
It must be 2.00metres wide X 0.9metre high (back) from floor and standard seat height. Hardwood frame essential. It will be fixed to a wall. Must be upholstered in genuine leather as per photo. Quotes please from anyone interested.

cheers
Sheddie (Mike)

Hi Mike, would you have a more detailed plan of the seat if you have could you send me a copy please, via email regards john t.

[Shedhand]

Gday John. I'll see what I can come up with and send to you in the next couple of days. I do it myself but too expensive to ship to Hobart from here on the Mornington Peninsula.
cheers

Doubt you will find an individual who can do the whole job.
There is a collective of furniture designers and makers in North Hobart called DOT. (Designed objects Tasmania).
Perhaps you could get in contact with them to see if there is anyone up for the quest?

[John T]

HI Mike,
Im sure that we would be able to do job, But maybe it would better if you get in touch with them your self and come up with a design. regards john t.

I may be out of touch but would have thought the upholstery would easily cost that alone

Think moisture resistant MDF or particle board (kitchen cabinet stuff) for the plinth and construction grade pine (screwed or stapled together) for the seat frame. The real dollars are in the upholstery, which is probably leather look vinyl


oops missed the "genuine leather" bit in the original post

[Shedhand]

My apologies John. I forgot all about this. Busy. The guy I posted this for had it done down south. Thanks anyway for your interest.
Keep well
Mike.
