I knocked this up from Douglas Fir flooring offcuts as I had my Festools all set up on the jobsite.
Total time spent 90 mins, but I had been thinking about how to do the job while installing the window boards that the flooring had been re-purposed for to start with.
All angles are 15° which worked out great as the CMS saw fence has indents at 15° so the compound angles for the legs was a breeze.
All stock 28mm thick, legs/rails 54mm wide as that was the max I could get from the bits to hand, 10x50 Dominoes one per joint with titebond 2 glue. Seat is 390mm wide by 290mm deep with a 1/2" round over on the bottom and a Handrailing bit Thumb molding on top. Two screws attach the seat which is 610mm from the floor.
It is the ideal height for me to sit and work at the MFT3.  ;D The stack of systainers I often use was awkward as invariably I would have to dismantle them to get another tool out.

Great looking stool.  And thanks for the idea on what to do with all those off-cuts I have!

Ta for the nice comments guys, I like using up *waste* material for projects for me and our home most goes into jigs or bits to make work easier. Some storm felled green wood I acquire become spoons or a recent attempt at a Kuksa with a Kolrosing design on the handle.

Working with wood is so addictive my coffee gets cold or my beer gets warm ;D
