Swivel Bonsai Table

Post by Ben10000 »

Thought i would share what i have done to a swivel office chair and a coffee table top, Hard Rubbish day collection didn't cost me anything LOL!!!!!!
I've seen people use a camera tripod too and mount a table top, but i suppose they are harder to come by!!!!

I have one too
they are very useful

I also use another as a permanent stand but it is full height
I removed the seat part of a tall stool
then bolted a flat piece of marine ply to it
its sturdy enough to take a big heavy tree
this way I don't need to lift it when turning or inspecting

Ahhhh yes, why pay $250 upwards for a fancy one when you can make one. Mine has not got adjustable height but it is a 1970's vintage swivel bar chair :lol:
If only it could talk, the stories it might tell :lost: (one day this guy with horrible gas sat on me and complained about etc etc).... :lol: :lol:
