The base
---------------------
The base of the stool is made from 9 mm birch plywood. In this special case I used plywood with light glue. Normally a water resistant glue is dark, but I got this material from a special model at a local wood dealer. The construction in not really complex, but as I draw most of my (technicals) design using SolidEdge 2D it was quite challenging to get everything right in 3D. The design allows effective nesting and the legs are glued together from 3 parts.
The seat
---------------------
I got my hands on some sheets of 10 mm acrylic glass. It's the same material I used for my [Bedside-Reading-Lamp "Waveguide"](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2926464) and like with that project I utilized the feature that acrylic glass can be bend if heated. So I cut the squircle shape rounded the edges with a handheld router and a roundover bit and put the result into the oven. Baking the thing for 10 minutes at approx. 170 °C and it can be bend rather effortless.
