The steering columns is also height adjustable, and I could very easily make a short knob type stick, that could sit front and centre, and fit under a table.

Most guys with stronger transfers, do so without removing the steering shaft. It seats with a tapered plate, so removal is very very quick. It also weighs next to nothing as I have fabricated it from alluminium.

Below is a link to our Facebook page for almost daily production updates, and a link to prototype no 3 with side steering.


I'm as strong as you're going to find and the center shaft is a problem on many levels. Lowering and removing things are not convenient if it needs to be done fifty times a day.

Look its a great product, as a speciality seat. As a viable chair option it's just too flawed.
