How about a camping store? Those collapsible stools?
You could get one of those Dick Blick director chairs and cut the legs, figure out a way to put an extender/coupler on them....
Ikea's got a nice tall folding stool with a back, just the right height, almost cheap enough to buy and leave at each show (you just have to do shows in areas with Ikea stores).

Hi Dee, I don't know if this is what you are looking for or not.

I talked to them the other day about this chair. They said it is being redesigned at the present time and won't be ready until spring. Give them a look.

Re: chairs
The Pier One Directors Chair is the best for doing shows because you sit at a high level (stool height) and your eyes are not too low to have a conversation with a standing person. The catch is that they are collapsible but not small or light.Ann Demko wrote:Found mine at Pier One. Ann
I always say that mine is designed by that famous chair designer Pierre Onay better known in America as Pier One.
