Observing Chair 1

Wow!!! wonderful! I wonder if common people can modify an old dob into this innovative chair?!

It would be very comfortable when we want to watch at zenith.. especially shooting stars!!

In the above image, there is a long arm that extends downward to the base and has a weight attached to the end. I must conclude that it plays a role in allowing the observer to balance the setup. I didn't meet the owner at the time in order to ask any technical questions.

This chair reminds me of Wayne Schmidt, in our local club, who built a chair of this sorts, and mounted two 8-inch Newtonians on it in order to have a "binocular" view of the heavens.
