Re: Round bottom
Maybe I can give a contribution to bended/round shaping.
At almost all good homeinprovement stores there is bendable playwood for sale. This plywood comes at 1/4" (6mm) thicknes.
Usually the plywood layers are cross grained for strength wich makes it hard to bend it on a small radius.... bendable plywood is long-grained.
This plywood is cheap. A whole plate (244 x 122 cm .... aprox 8 x 4 ft) will cost you about Euro 35 .... $42

< dutch insider mode on >
That's interesting to know, we have three Praxis here in Almere, the two larger ones are the Praxis at Doemere and the Praxis megastore in Almere-Stad. I have always believed that Gamma has a better selection of wood than Praxis does.
I have to go and investigate tomorrow

Re: Round bottom
Robert (AKA Kinsky) has done a tutorial already. Including saw scheme and all measurements.

Re: Round bottom
Here's the finished result. We only have to paint the metal strip. It's getting realistic - I have trouble getting in the seat . Next project: J-rails I'm afraid.
