Story : Featuring a hand-carved seat, the arts-and-crafts style barstool built in this episode is made from quarter-sawn oak. Mortise-and-tenon joinery is used throughout to make the stool strong and sturdy. Integral through-tenon joints attach the legs to the seat, making for a distinctive design feature. The visible tenons are cut flush with the top surface of the seat, revealing constrasting colors and grain on the top of the stool.
