However, with the lack of measurement while working on it, another epic fail. So for the next time, I decided to use .5mm thick styrene sheet and cut them in to circles, connect them with the metal rod and fill up with putty between them.
Then use hobby knife to work around with it, and here we are:
Together with the power supply:
.... 8 seats... needs some sanding/sculpting work
And look what I got?!
