      Elly & I in our Thinking/napping chair as Avatar. I find brief naps very helpful as I age. Your chair looks very inviting.

            Think I will need some more plates, Caldercraft sells them £5 per 100 and I reckon I trashed a few doing the cuts

              Great work mate, I think they would have to pad my room after fitting all of those.
