While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Dave,

You may want to consider making one yourself. There are several designs =
available on the net and others available in books (such as Star Ware =
1st edition). Most of the chairs I've seen are made of wood and don't =
require too much woodworking expertise or specialized tools. If you =
have the time, it's a worthwhile project...particularly when you =
consider that a commercially available chair may cost you up to $200.

Most of my observing sessions with my LX-200 10" have been for less =
that three hours. Last weekend I attended a star party and by 1AM I was =
wishing I had an observing chair or stool.

Any suggestions for an observing chair for this scope?

Thanks

Dave
