The plans are by Christopher Schwarz. https://blog.lostartpress.com/2018/08/2 ... igh-stool/

I got his book, The Anarchists Design Book. https://lostartpress.com/collections/bo ... esign-book, which covers this style (staked) of construction.

I really like it, the best of his books that I have read so far.

The Staked High Stool is a new chapter that will be included in a yet to be published expanded edition.

Thanks Ron, I’m also a Christopher Schwarz fan, but I haven’t read that book. By his definition from your links, I’m definitely an “anarchist”. I’m usually fine with (or smetimes actually prefer) PDF’s, but in this case I think the hardbound book is the way to go. It was just added to my wish list, awaiting the expanded edition.
