Jay Leno maintains a deep enthusiasm for mechanical projects and hands-on fabrication. Harrison Ford prefers practical solutions and sought a replacement for a discontinued, discolored toilet seat. Ford asked Leno to produce a 3-D printed replica to restore the appearance and function of the original. Leno agreed and applied his mechanical expertise and resources to print the replacement. The collaboration pairs modern fabrication techniques with enthusiast-driven craftsmanship to recreate an obsolete part and solve a practical household problem through custom restoration.
"Yeah, Jay's printing a 3-D printed toilet seat for me,"
"Because I asked him."
"He's incredibly invested in machinery... and I had this toilet seat from a toilet that's not in production anymore. And the toilet seat has discolored in a way that's really unattractive,"
"He embraced the project in a way I could've never imagined."
