I’m so taken with this folding tripod camp stool tutorial from my online crush, Wood and Faulk:

Have you seen modern folding tripod stools? They are ugly as sin and your grandpa would be ASHAMED if you bought one. With the help of some hefty dowels, a little hardware and a piece of leather or heavy canvas – you’ll be sitting by the campfire in style. Also, the materials will only set you back about $25.

Talk about a great (semi) last-minute Father’s Day gift! It has great step-by-step instructions and beautiful photos.
