    Don't know of plans, but there's a place at Macgregor that sell them. Just near the Transport Department on Kessels Rd. Perhaps a visit with a handy camera and tape measure?
    Cheers,

    Being from the Upper half (Not to be confused with the upper crust) of the wprld, I hadnot a clue what a Squatter's chair was so I started looking it up and cam across these links that might be of use to your search for a plan...

    Plans for the Bush Squatters Chair are available directly from John Gerritsen.

    Hello Phil,
    Hope you are still on air.
    I am also interested in making a squatter's chair.
    Would you please send me the same info as you gave "weisboy"?
    Many thanks,
    John Blaxland
