Office chairs suck after the 2 seasons. They deteriate quick and the wheels fall off. Tx Hunter swivel chairs...had them for 6 seasons and just as good as the day I got them.

I've got several office chairs that are going on 5+ years without failure. Pro tip, if you live near a major university, they likely have a 'surplus' division, where older/non-matching chairs/tables/other furniture are sent when people change offices or redecorate. You can usually find some pretty good chairs for less than $20 each.

the State Surplus Store on Bolm road in Austin has lots of nice used chairs of various types, styles, fabrics, etc. for pretty cheap. They also have knifes, and other assorted items that were confiscated by airport security.

Speaking of window heights, what do you think is the appropriate window height in a home made blind? Thanks Daniel

If you are asking about floor to bottom of window I would say 40". Most factory blinds are within an inch of that from my experience. Ive found that most chairs are about 19" and Im an average size guy and those numbers work for me.

I like free chairs. Have two office chairs from the mid 90s still in service. Been sitting in the blinds for about 20 yrs now. Wheels quit? Take them off or replace them. Done both.
