Will a gemcrest leather seat cover fit fine on a Semcycle steel seat base? Also, what do you think of using a steel base for an airseat?
If I remember correctly, that Semcycle seat base is the same (or similar to) the Viscount seat base. I know people have successfully converted Viscounts to air. Try searching the forum for “Viscount air” and see what falls out.

What? Did I hear Viscount conversion?! I think there are a few people who have done it.
Want pictures?
How much of a difference in weight is there?
And yes, PICS!

Here is my reply from a Viscount airseat post that came up last month.

This one is the cutout. 12" tube shaped as shown.
This one is showing the piece of duct tape I put over the tube to keep it from bulging. You can try it, but it didn’t work for me. My brother is running it without the tape right now
This is the rockin’ orange vinyl that is currently covering the seat.
The seat originally went into in a sock to keep the tube in place. My bro later covered it without the sock.
You can see where I drilled the hole. I also put a few strips of duct tape so the edges of the hole don’t cut into the stem.
My brother with the seat in its current state. You can just barely see the outline of the tube.
My original plan was to glue the vinyl down over the sock. My bro covered the tube as is and now he is holding the sides of the cover down with a strip of duct tape running from one side to the other underneath the seat base. This was a huge experiment for me and it kinda got down two ways, so if this is confusing or you don’t understand something, just ask and I’ll be happy to help.
Good luck! [/B]
And the last sentence should say “and it kinda got done two ways, so if…”
