[QUOTE="TheWolf, post: 1008013, member: 12996"] [FONT="Tahoma"][SIZE="3"][U][I]The Lowrider Seat[/I][/U][/SIZE][/FONT] When working on the lower rockers of cars, my detailing seat was too tall, so I would use the creeper to sit on instead of sitting on the floor, but it was a little big and awkward to move around. So I got another Traxion ProGear Seat and modified it so that the seat is bolted directly to the frame, instead of using the adjustable cylinder post. This makes the seat about 5-1/2 inches lower, and I am still able to move it around with my feet. [ATTACH]77535.vB[/ATTACH] Removed the post plate on the bottom of the seat, then used it to mark the frame, and drilled out the holes. Then got some longer bolts to go through the frame and into the nuts in the seat bottom. [ATTACH]77536.vB[/ATTACH] I also added some bottle holders so I don't have to put them down on the floor, where they get knocked over. [ATTACH]77537.vB[/ATTACH] These Tamrac bottle holders have a flap for attaching to a belt. [ATTACH]77538.vB[/ATTACH] I cut the stitches in the seam on the cover to a width that would allow the flap to slip inside, then added a stitch on each side of the flap to keep the cover from coming apart. [ATTACH]77539.vB[/ATTACH] Loaded up some black Shoe Goo into a small craft syringe. [ATTACH]77540.vB[/ATTACH] Injected some into the cover on both sides of the flap, to make sure it stays in place. [ATTACH]77541.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]77542.vB[/ATTACH] Added some more to the back of the bottle holder. [ATTACH]77543.vB[/ATTACH] Taped them in place overnight to let the adhesive dry. [ATTACH]77544.vB[/ATTACH] The bottle holders are handy, so I ordered some more to put on the other stool. [/QUOTE]
