steve_b_wales Posted May 5 Report Share Posted May 5 (edited) I used to own one of the above seats, but it was difficult, even with two people, to fit the sections together, never mind on my own. So I sold it. Is there any way that the sections could be fitted (welded I suppose) with hinges, so that it could fold down on itself etc?

Wymondley Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 It's worth trying local architectural metalworkers if you have pictures of the one you're after and an idea of what you want modifying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Better to have the sections slide into each other than rely on hinges. I've got 2 made of 25mm x3mm Steel box with a piece welded that one slides into. 4 minutes ago, Wymondley said: It's worth trying local architectural metalworkers if you have pictures of the one you're after and an idea of what you want modifying.

I had one where the sections slotted into each other, but found it awkward and sometimes difficult to do this on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 RF. Love the idea of the box, I'm thinking of something for mine. But It keeps popping up in my head, I will loose any shots to either side, so may end up just adding a top. It gives a little more comfort in a down pour.

Well having being born in the UK I've learnt to expect the unexpected regarding the weather. If I'm in a highseat and it rains I stop in the highseat hoping for the rain to stop. Making the most of my time out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I wouldn't be leaving the high seat in situ anyway, as, in the past, my mate and I have had our camo nets etc stolen when we left our hide in the field for other's to use.
