Don't use a 9-5 seat. Posted by B Millar [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: 9-5 seat to desk chair conversion, Dan-O, Tue, 11 Aug 2009 11:58:27 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Unless you're good with electricity and plan to power the thing somehow, avoid power seats. I did this last year and used a 9-3 seat. It's VERY comfortable, and without the electrics it's MUCH lighter, and I can adjust it without having to be plugged in. Unfortunately I left it out on New Years when I had a raging party at my house and a couple people sat on it and the weld broke on the base. :( This was a base I pulled out of the bushes behind the art building at UConn. So, I still have the seat but I'm in the market for a new pneumatic bottom part. Mine had the recline feature built into the base and it was absolutely PERFECT. I eyeballed the center of gravity and it balanced so well. I miss that chair. Now that you remind me of it I may need to start looking a little harder for a new base. I linked to a whole album of pictures so you can see how I did it. Feel free to steal any of my ideas, haha.
