My Mark III Classic is very comfortable with homemade seats. I used the Kolb furnished black sling seat material for a 2" foam cushion cover. The bottom and back sides are aluminum extrusions like on a motorhome awning and the seat and back are of .020 sheet stock. I used a Target stadium chair for the bottom. The aluminum sits on the fuselage tubes and the back rests against a 2" alum extrusion to hold the seat forward of the frame that goes right in front of the two gas tanks. Two pins hold each one in place so it is easy to get them out to work on brakes and things. The cost was around $30 using surplus aluminum sheet and extrusion.
