Where to Buy a Shop Stool
I want something that's padded, has a back, and that's strong.
Any one of the mail order places? Gary Curtis Los Angeles |

"Robatoy" wrote in message I used to work at a foreman's desk a lot even though I had a regular office as well. I find with one cheek on a stool, half-standing at a foreman's desk, I get a lot more creative..*G*..Do NOT ask me why. I know the left/right brain thing controls creativity and logic. Does it matter which cheek is on the stool? |

Probably depends on the individual.

Where to Buy a Shop Stool
Gary,
Read all the answers so far. The only two specifically pointed out are a bit STEEP, in my opinion. I have 3 'stools' . . . all under $20 each. . . . 2 are unpadded, about 32 inches {?} to the seat. It's a simple matter to place a piece of 'Slip-Not' on it and add a cushion of my choice. 1 is about 6in taller with a fitted/fastened 'leatherette' padded seat. Neither has a 'back' but they are made of hardwood so fabricating & fastening a back should be no problem. The shorter ones came from a 'chain' crafts store - 'Michaels' . . . but they seem to be a 'standard' product. The padded one came from a local 'Target' store. Another padded option may be the METAL stools from either 'Pep Boys' or Harbor freight. Again no back but a wooden one could be attached . . . unless your good with metalcraft? Regards & Good Luck, Ron Magen Backyard Boatshop wrote in message oups.com... I want something that's padded, has a back, and that's strong. Any one of the mail order places?

Ikea has a good folding one, nice and tall and can be stowed away on a
spare wall. |

This was in Cincinnati, but they have stores in various cities in the middle of the US. (see watsons.com) I wasn't so much recommending a particular store as suggesting looking at places that carry bar stools. I didn't even consider mail order myself, because my eyes can't tell me what my butt will feel. The only true test of a chair is sitting in it. |
