4mm rod shaped, fitted and edge knocked over to give a stiff smooth beaded edge. Bruised the surface a bit but not badly.

Looks great Dave. No need for stiffening beads across the seat back then?

Difficult to say until it's assembled to the base, but it's pretty stiff as is. I'd like to keep it smooth as I prefer the look (and It's easier that way   Wink Cheesy)
I can swage some beads in later if required.

The swages in my steel Pop seats look like the guy did them blind folded -really wonky - but they were intended to be upholstered so would never be seen.
