Start of skateboard Cafe seat, used an old army foam sleeping mat for the padding and used a grinding wheel to shape it. Could probably use another layer of some better padding because its not the most comfortable seat. But besides that just have to wrap the vinyl and figure out the hoop tail for the back, I have see people use old handle bars so I might try that but if anyone knows an easy way to do it or maybe a different way let me know

Try getting an electricians "hickey" and some pipe and bend it yourself...Spad
