I use a gas lift office chair with back removed. It's much more comfortable to sit down while observing. Easy also if you are on a hard surface and the chair has wheels. With your 8" you can sit with knees under it at lower elevations, or with the base/tube between your knees for higher elevation. If the eyepiece gets a bit high, sit on a folded blanket.
Only problems are chair seat getting wet in dewy conditions and wheels getting such in the mud if you are out on wed ground.
Proper astro-type chairs are pretty expensive.
