So we got four awesome, original seats from the Cosmo theater<\/a> in downtown Merrill. These are the original art deco seats, refurbished about 10 years ago, so they have drink holders now.  With the size of our family, of course we could always use more seating, and with the history of this set it’ll be awesome in our living room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The problem, of course, is that movie theater seats are meant to be bolted into the ground.  So we’ve had to come up with an alternate solution: a nice big piece (4’x8′) of plywood.  The seats themselves are 7 feet wide and two deep, so we’ll be placing them near the center for balance and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

We’re going to drill holes at the appropriate places, counter-sink the back so that the bolt heads with be flush with the plywood, and then add carpeting to both sides so we don’t scratch up the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Menards we got a nice 12’x5 carpet remnant for 18 bucks for the top, and we’ve got some leftover grey felt\/carpet in the garage to put on the bottom.  I’ll update later with pics of the project in progress and hopefully the final result!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
