When you said towel, I thought you were going to suggest for the throne. I see a lot of drummers do this. Particularly with vinyl or leather seats at a hot gig. Helps keep your butt dry! I usually forget the towel though! LOL! Great info. Thanks!

The upside down quick clamp got me... why hadn't i thought of that before???? 🤯

[@DaveMajor]

Haha I've been blowing peoples minds with that for a decade!

Really valuable hacks!

Glad you found them useful!

Good point but the reason I don't do that is that the thickness of a stool can vary wildly from brand to brand. I've seen super-thin ones and then I think Natal do a mega thick one. I think that might have a bigger effect on the comfort! Either way, thanks for checkin the video Brad!

[@DaveMajor]

Good idea on the numbers. But either option would work
