Instructions

In summary:
Scouts will need to drill a hole through each of three wooden legs. They must also drill a pilot hole in the top of each leg. Legs must be finished off with a laquer/wax/other finish. The three legs are then attached together.

The leather seat must be cut to size and a hole punched in each corner. The seat is then attached to the top of each leg. A carrying strap can be added if desired. A strap should be attached to hold the legs together when not in use.
