Cats perch chair

Greetings again,

Finally finished the "chair". Mr Acropolite the chair is a copy of the one that was being sold in the states, he no longer makes them I believe. I made the chair from some pictures with some small changes from the original. The chair is made out of "Tassie oak" (various sorts of gum tree or just hardwood) and at the highest setting places my eye level at about 2000mm high and seems quite stable, a cushion would help though. both the seat and the footrest are removable for transport as is the front stabalising foot.

I could pm you with some rough and ready mesurements and in the meantime if people of the forum would like I could put together a construction article for the project section. The only tough part is the racking for the seat and footrest, as it requires an accuracy of better than .25mm, as my newly aquired firewood collection can atest to.

Anyway have tried to attach some pics, (had trouble reducing them from 900k to less than 100k

cheers
peter
