Comentario sobre Keilim 22:8
שִׁדָּה שֶׁנִּטַּל הָעֶלְיוֹן, טְמֵאָה מִפְּנֵי הַתַּחְתּוֹן. נִטַּל הַתַּחְתּוֹן, טְמֵאָה מִפְּנֵי הָעֶלְיוֹן. נִטַּל הָעֶלְיוֹן וְהַתַּחְתּוֹן, רַבִּי יְהוּדָה מְטַמֵּא מִפְּנֵי הַדַּפִּין, וַחֲכָמִים מְטַהֲרִין. יְשִׁיבַת הַסַּתָּת, טָמֵא מִדְרָס:
Un cofre cuya parte superior fue eliminada aún es susceptible a la impureza debido a su parte inferior; si se quitó su parte inferior, todavía es susceptible a la impureza debido a su parte superior. Si se eliminaron tanto la parte superior como la inferior: el rabino Yehudah dice que es susceptible a la impureza debido a sus lados; pero los sabios gobiernan que es puro. El asiento de un cantero está sujeto a la impureza midras [transmitida al sentarse o acostarse].

שידה (chest, strong box) – made like a kind of ark. And we are speaking of a chest that does not hold forty Se’ah, which is susceptible to receive ritual impurity.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kelim
A chest whose top part was removed is still susceptible to uncleanness on account of its bottom; If its bottom was removed it is still susceptible to uncleanness on account of its top part. The type of chest referred to here seems to contain some drawers. If the top part is removed, the whole chest is still susceptible to impurity on account of the bottom part. Similarly, if the bottom part is removed, the whole chest is susceptible to impurity on account of the top part.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kelim
A stonecutter's seat is subject to midras uncleanness. A stonecutter's seat is a temporary seat that a stonecutter will fashion for him to use while performing his work. The seat is considered to be a real seat and is therefore susceptible to midras impurity.
