    Shop chairs

    I know when I had the other shop way back when I used to spend time in the evenings just sitting inside the front door smokin a cig, drinkin a cold one and watchin the sun go down in one of my Adirondacks that I had built, Now its gone and I have resorted to the plastic kind, just so you'll know this is a deal post as usual so if your in the need for a couple of plastic somewhat H.D. chairs to sit out in the shop for such occasions as chattin with the neighbor over a cold one heres a steal for ya. Now if their out of them at your local Lowes, just take this add to HD or Wallyworld for a p/m,Tommy, http://www.lowes.com/pd_333439-1364-...air&facetInfo=

    They are actually pretty comfortable. We have a few grocery stores (Winn Dixie) that sell either that brand or a similar one for about the same money.

        And as the sun hits them year after year, it takes less fat break the chair.

          I had one, not too long ago break on me, and although the damage was minor, I did get slightly skewered by the stupid thing... I can't emphasize enough, these things IMHO are a safety hazard, especially if you or someone you know has a little extra heft to them... Do you really want the liability?

                  OK,OK,I get the picture you guys are er,uh, large proportionately, but hey they are rated to 250# and UV Resin rated, So I'll cover them in the winter,btw HD has a clearance on chair covers as well $5 a piece. Eventually the new shop will go up and I'll build some newer wooden ones,but in the meantime these work well for me and whomever stops buy for a cold one to watch the sun go down or come up

                  Oh and btw these are not the old cheap plastic ones from yrs gone by, guess they had problems in the past with folks breaking them,hardy har,har
