This is a sturdy and elegant three-way pivot for building a folding stool such as the one in Chris Schwarz's Campaign Furniture (available separately).

Developed for use with 1 1/4" diameter legs, the hardware installs at the midpoint of the legs, letting them pivot to form a tripod or fold for compact carrying and storage.

The kit includes a central brass hub, plus three stainless-steel bolts, each with a set of shaped brass washers. To prevent the bolts from loosening in use, flat nylon washers are included to reduce friction between the outer washer and bolt. The hub is 1" in diameter and 1 1/4" thick; fully assembled, the hardware is just over 4" in diameter.

Made in Canada.
