Her stool, however, had a central support so the foot went between her ankles instead of on the outsides. I've built a similar one out of wood, but mine is significantly less stable, probably `cuz I'm such a klutz with woodworking tools. I also searched on the web and found some very nice (but expensive) stools, more like the style you show.
