Some other pics, this was after cleaning up a little with the chisel too. I was aiming for about 2-2.5 degrees. Would be nice to have something better right off the saw (or other method).

The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven is exactly what you want
Holy clamp
Lizzie is adorable. She needs one of those window suction cup beds
So scrunched up!
I really like your pan! Where'd you get it and what kind is it?
Such a striking bird for such a common sounding name
You guys should join forces
He's looking very happy! You take good care of your cat!
After researching the medallion on the handle I found out it's a 1940s Disston D8 26" 10TPI crosscut saw
I tried to follow the process from this video https://youtu.be/cN8yMAXp54s for the most part. Haven't done any sharpening on it yet. Still need the tools.
It's all from a single 2x4x8 ($5.50), making it really cheap to attempt. I think it's really cool to make something that would get regular use like a stool. I've got a second one going too and I'm thinking I'm not going to taper it the same way. This taper was really labor intensive and is just underwhelming. Need to figure out other ways to taper staked furniture
Got some more shaping to do on the top. Not sure how I'm going to finish it yet. Can you put renaissance wax over poly?
