ving good job there.

I have been looking at geting a chair of some sort. I came accross a cool australian wood working forum, where someone requested one be made and it was done. Looks like a denver, not sure.
http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ight=telescope

But this other forum has plenty of help for people working with wood.

Regards

Have a gold star for a unique piece of craftsmanship.

I just wondered what purpose the remote control cable serves.

I was kinda hoping the Fresian would select a nice leopard spot design to compliment her natural outfit

Great job Dave.

How is it going? Has it survived the outdoors and the transport?? I was thinking the same. I have an old chair in the garage with broken back - rip that off, and the wheels, and see if it will have enough up-down travel for when I tilt my binoculars. If that works, rip off the cloth seating and replace with some vinyl for dew proofing?

Sorry, just found the other thread - the famous Reject Shop - I've bought plenty of stuff there over the years. Just remember not to lean on the bookcases unless reinforced! I'll have a look and see what they have - it was only 14 mths ago - should have some stock left!

Beware the Newbie - they go trawling old threads - but still ask FAQ-type questions!

Yes, Erick, we Newbies do trawl old threads, but no FAQ's for you ( ). Thanks, guys, for this thread. I found what I have been looking for. And, Ving, make that over two years old for this thread.

Cheers, and CDS!
