sawdust1 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) I have to sit down when scrolling. A standard office height was a little to low. I looked for a higher one and could only find drafting chairs and they were to high. I found out you can replace cylinder on chairs very easy. The cylinders come in different sizes. I found the size I needed to raise a chair that I had up to a height that worked for me. Also the cylinder adjust for up and down. There are videos on the internet that show how to change cylinder.This way you can take any chair change the cylinder to work for your needs.Bob Edited October 7, 2015 by sawdust1 wombatie, Scrolling Steve, oldhudson and 2 others 5 Quote

Phantom Scroller Posted October 7, 2015 Report Posted October 7, 2015 You could always make a step up deck for your chair to go on to get it to the right height or cut the legs off the stand, just a thought. Roly Quote

Bob I've made a box ,took the wheels of the chair plugged them in the box and wedged my chair in solid on top of it to raise it up no cost involved Quote
