We need chairs. The consensus is that they should be “not shitty”. We need someone, anyone, to figure out where they should come from and what they should look like.
The parameters: We want them to be office-style chairs, at normal height (not bar height, like the front desk has) and adjustable. We want them to have backs, and wheels. Ideally these chairs will be the same model. (information here is subject to change)
The numbers: We’ll need 6 for the front office / design lab. Probably another 10 for the conference room. 1 for 3D printing. And then even more, probably. Keep this in mind when considering. (information here also subject to change)
This is pretty important, as the comfort of every member and volunteer is at stake. Please do some looking around, and share any suggestions you have as a response down below.
This is the most promising relatively local office closeout bulk chair listing that I could find. There are 22 on hand now, seller is not open to a volume discount, and does not recall the make and model offhand. They will check if we are interested.
Price seems a little high for a volume used chair purchase, but this is a start.
I showed this thread to @brian.adams and he said if we can get someone to haul them from Battle Creek this may be the kind of chair upgrade we’re looking for.
