Bino-Chair Component Plans
Average rating:

Fairly clear. Drawings plus text helps.
MOTIVATION FOR TAKING ON THIS PROJECT: Leisure time viewing the sky
FAVORITE PART OF THE PLANS OR THE DESIGNS: Depth
ARE PLANS WORTH THE PRICE, AFTER THE DISCOUNT: Yes

Overall the plans are detailed and well laid out. Couple of times I had to scratch my head. Bit more involved than meets the eye. But the engineering/design seems to be good thus far. I am about halfway through building my chair. Parts were fairly easy to acquire. Basically have relied on Amazon, Grainger, and Menards.

ARE PLANS WORTH THE PRICE, AFTER THE DISCOUNT: Yes

I have used the plans to gather the necessary materials. I’ve stalled out due to personal issues but so far the plans have been just fine.

Plans are very thorough and contain detailed information on construction and techniques.
MOTIVATION FOR TAKING ON THIS PROJECT: Wanted to have easier movement than what a parallelogram mount offers.
FAVORITE PART OF THE PLANS OR THE DESIGNS: Accurate parts list and in-depth instructions.
ARE PLANS WORTH THE PRICE, AFTER THE DISCOUNT: Plans are a great value. Lots of info for the price.

At this point, I have most of the base constructed. Sourcing the parts was simple with the very good materials list. One thing extra I did was to trace out on the ground board with a pencil the dimensions of the track segments and friction ring blocks. This made cutting to the correct dimensions and angles easy. For the carpet ring, I sourced an 8”x 8” carpet sample named Adalida from Home Depot and cut it into eight 1” strips. The carpet sample only cost $1 and looks to work perfect. Looking forward to a finishing the project when life allows the time.
