Jay,
I have an old Takahashi observing chair in good condition. You can try it if you like to compare, contact me off list. It is similar to the ones you are looking at. Metal is rather cold to grab, that is the only draw back I can think of. I could be convinced to part with it. Erik Jay,
I don't know if you still want to build a chair or not, but I just built one of these over the weekend:

It was real easy to make and was only about $20 in supplies.

I was going to build a denver or other similar chair but after doing research I'm not sure if I like the tension idea. So I have the okay from the CFO/CEO to buy a chair and in researching I have it down to the Stardust Chair http://www.handsonoptics.com/gen_stardust.html or the Smart Seat II Chair http://yhst-1469288697390.stores.yahoo.net/smsmch.html.
I would welcome any opinions or advice on these.
Thanks,
Jay
