Seats

 
I used poster board that I reinforced with fiberglass cloth. It is very light and surprisingly strong. 

 

To this I trimmed regular seat foam from an upholstery shop  This was kind of tricky to cut. Straight cuts with the aid of a straight edge were fine.  These angled were kind of rough. But it will be covered up so shouldn't matter.

 

I used 3 stiffness of foam.  Firm then med then soft.  Here I have sprayed with adhesive and am ready to join.

 

All done.  I added a top bit of soft foam you can also see.

 

The bottom ones were about the same.  I started with stiff then attached the medium.  This held the shape.  This is the first two

 

Next I joined the soft and curled it over the front.

A view of the bracket and that the seat back fits into.  Now ready to take them to the upholsters.
Took the seats to get covered at an auto upholstery shop.  They did a good job.
