Hi all, I have just made myself replicas of Roorkhee chairs from a book I ordered from the USA." British Campaign Furniture,Elegance under Canvas "
This chairs was designed by the British Army Engineering Corps stationed in Roorkhee in India during the Asian Campaign in the 1880's. It was issued to Captains and higher ranks during the Anglo Boer war and was used right up to WW2. Also standard issue to all colonialist on Safari in Africa.
I made it because all the chairs I use break after 12 mths use , not to mention the Campmaster spider chairs that last for 3 mths.
It folds in a bag and weight approx 8 to 10 kg .
Melvill & Moon also makes it.
It sits so comfortable, the backrest adjust to how deep you sit in the chair, if you sit right to the back its quite upright and the more fwd you move your bum the more the angle becomes bigger and reclines a bit, so much so I actually take a little nap in it.
Pse comment on them, would like to know what you guys think .
Groete
Koos
