Leather in the oven.

1 Tool. 1 Material. 1 Stool

Using just an OLFA Knife and Leather I created a stool that can support the weight of an adult.

I softened the leather by soaking in water, shaped it and tied it together with leather strips. I then baked the leather in an oven for four hours to harden the leather.

The result is a stool that is surprisingly sturdy despite its soft and supple look.
