My homemade seat and butt-protector

I finally got something I feel comfy buggying in... after two attepts at rigging a seat and some arse protection, I think I finally got it with plan #3. It has stood up to two pretty good sessions, and looks to be in still great shape.

The picture of the underside is after two sessions. All in all, I think it will last a while. It feels pretty solid. It held up better than I did, I'm afraid:sniff:

If you would like to know how I did it, shoot me a u2u, I will explain it in an email. I dont want to post some huge post, just get some pics up.

your pictures kind of confused me. Is the webbing your new seat? or the nice blue one? Are you using puck board for your seat protector under the duct tape?

The buggy was just a frame before I started, the seat is the blue nylon strapping, the protector is a cutout of a trashcan, the cusioning is pool noodles wrapped with tape.
