Thanks for the vote..... I think I will paint the base.

I was going to use a power adapter of some kind.... Still in the planning stages.

Powdercoat them GR, harder finish and will be more durable. I have a pair of seats that I should set up similarly, they could be my guest seats at the office.

Cool!

Electrics or ban!

Thats a great idea, I was wondering if painting them would hold up.... They do make great office chairs...

Looks like I had better get the electrics going wouldn't want to be banned.

Looking at the picture at the top, your list misses model cars and baseball hats.

Yeh that too. I think I have over 300 baseball hats and about 30 Porsche models.

That's wicked. I don't remember anyone else ever converting our seats to actual office chairs. Personally, I couldn't have an office chair that I sit in all day without arm rests. Is there anyway you could incorporate arm rests into this design or would it be too hard and not worth the trouble? I rest my arms on the arm rest for much of the day in one way or another.

Guards red would definitely make for a BRIGHT base! I like the toned down effect of the silver base you have, but that's just me.

Actually, this DOES look pretty good...from Racechairs, Performance Furniture






Good show!

Steve, I noticed you even kept the box for your Bell helmet...
