denver chair

I had a go over the weekend building a "Denver Chair" (if you google that you will get the idea). The chair has an adjusable seat to allow for the position of your eyepiece. I dont know if any of you folk have built one or found something in the kitchen to suit?

Anyway I will post a photo of the yoke when i make some final adjustments to it (a larger seat to suit the more generiously proportioned gentleman :oops:

Thats the geezer alright, it's a neat idea. or are you all going to tell me that real Astronomers stand. :shock:

I think it's a good idea Declan. I never really gave it much credibility until one night I was out observine with Mike OC, and he brought out one of those, from Lidl (they called it an ironing chair). Adjustable height and all, good for telescope star-hopping observing. Might be worth keeping an eye out for one for newbies if Lidl get them again.
