Cut metal bar stool legs.
Posted on january 29 2015 by thediygirl january 28 2015.
Place the chair or stool on a level flat surface.
Most metal bar stool legs are made of a hollow tubular metal which is simple to cut.
To compensate for that thickness i used 3 pieces of luan plywood to fill in the space between the stool leg and the cutting jig.
Bar stools should sit 12 to 24 inches below the bottom of the counter top.
I have great sentimental attachment to the bar stools i have to the point i don t really care if the go with the house and decor i can t part with them too many memories when.
Bar stools are usually a little bit higher than kitchen counters so the best solution is to lower your stools by cutting them down to height.
Place the guide the flat portion of the 1 4 up against the bottom of the stool legs lining up the 1 2 with one leg mark the 4 cut line.
Note the rear legs on my stool were wider than the front.

Cut legs using a circular saw or hand saw try to keep your cut parallel to the rungs.
Repeat this process for each leg.
Transfer that measurement to a piece of cardboard and cut it out as a template.
For most bar height stools you need to remove about 5 inches to make it fit properly under counter height areas.
