The x-ray tech in our clinic has an autistic child. He loved his old chair but destroyed it in time. She aske me if I could duplicate it. "Sure! I can do that!"
Uh huh. Took 3 weekends. And I won't tell you how many times it took to get the pencil shapes right. Never tried 6-sided and pointed shapes before.
The "eraser" ends are strips of pink rubber, and the metal on the legs is shaped tin cans (used a lot to get them right, but tin cans are cheap).
Anyway, he broke one of the legs off after 2 months so I brought it home to repair, and strengthen. He's hard on his stuff as you can tell by the chips in the paint.
But he loves the thing! Hope this time it lasts longer. If not, NOW I know how to duplicate it again!
