    Talking Calling on someone with a good memory

    I was telling someone about the amazing Z-Table and chairs but when I wanted to show them the picture, I couldn't remember where I had seen it.
    Anyone know, please?

    Our own member Rocker made a zen chair which was extensively tested by a Queensland forum get together.

    The links are here and here and here.

    Haven't heard from Rocker for a while now, hope he is well. For the info of new members he is also the designer of great mortice and tenons jigs, well worth while to check them out.

    Peter.

    Thank you Peter
    That's the one I was looking for.
    I love the look of it.

    Looks great, but being a big bloke, I'd be politely offering it to someone else to sit on ) I'd hate to have to apologise for breaking it and then pick splinters out of parts unknown!

    Nice modern look. Well done to the craftsman who made it.

    Wolffie..
    Also have a look at these tables I made with one of my grandaughters.
    https://www.woodworkforums.com/f40/nest-tables-141601/
    These were made from some 40 mm square pine and they get used every day. She loves them.
    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.

    Have a troll through the threads related to the chairs. You'd be suprised at how much weight they are capable of holding. I remember one pic with three or four big blokes standing on the chair. I made one too and they really are very strong joints
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    Hi Wolffie,
    Plans....there were no plans, it was an idea I had so I just made some rough sketches and went from there. I was trying to get the "suspended in mid air" look and this was the result.
    I can get the basic dimensions for you and do some basic sketches if that helps. Let me know.

    regards
    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.
