What weight do you think the seat could hold?
I'm assuming a human can't sit in it without getting acquinted with the floor real fast.
The rest of the chair will give out before the seat does.  Anyway, 100kg of me has sit-tested it, and it seemed fine...

Some rocking chair pics pending...

I'm going to have to space the rows out a lot more than that - it's my last bundle of the cord pictured halfway used up, from Big Lots, so no getting more.

A pity, I like the pattern of the seat.

It worked out pretty well.  Pics later.

I'm about as content as I get for this kind of thing, considering the circumstances.

My sketchy right shoulder is really hurting from all this, by the way.

How much stretch do you think the rocker has with the nylon cordage?

It turned out beautiful from where I stand.

I can never look at this kind of work without seeing flaws, but yeah.

How much stretch do you think the rocker has with the nylon cordage?
This stuff has a lot more give than the sisu -which is zero- but it's pretty low.  No stretch to speak of when I sit-tested.

Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden. He drove out the man, and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
