Hi Richard

I agree with you on all points. While I have the utmost respect for the design and work of David Haig (who is shortly to run a couple of workshops here in Perth), The idea of a three-legged chair is not one I find reassuring, despite the familiarity of Antipodeans seeing the world from unusual vantage points! I plan to build a desk inspired by David's desk, but the chair for the desk is inspired by Sam Maloof ( who kept all fours on the ground).

Still in wintery Cape Town, where the sun is shining.
