Bob,

I don't know where that relates to laminated bits and pieces, but $12.50 will get you a piece of mini-cell foam and you can make it yourself to actually fit. Uncle Nick has a video about making one.

Those look nice, and I have seen nice reviews about them.

Actually I like Nick Shades wooden seat he made for the microBootlegger.
I'm waiting for the plans to see if he describes making the wood seat.
You might think it would be uncomfortable, but my mother had an iron tractor seat that you could sit in all day.
