What do you guys use for tig welding at your bench! Iv been looking at draughtsman chairs as that's what I use in work but they seem expensive! Think I'll stay standing for now!
Ye that's my thinking after seeing the price of a draughts man chair!Bank tellers chairs.
I've seen normal swivel chairs used - just substitute the centre post for something longer.
Ye would like to see that. Sounds very neat!I've got a dentists stool (the one the dentist sits in, not the patient!) which is on a swivel. It has a clever feature where the back rest is on an independent bearing so you can swing it round to rest your elbow on. Bought two on eBay secondhand for £40. Can take a picture if you want?
....or make one

I have since re-made it with three (longer) legs at the base because it was annoying when it would rock slightly mid weld. The adjustment thread is something like 24mm high tensile studding and runs in two nuts (one welded to the top of the base tube and one hidden a little way below on the inside of the tube). I bought the tractor seat off ebay - it's a bit cold in winter.
