You know, a source for relatively-inexpensive (I know that is a subjective term when it comes to furniture) seats that are low to the ground, so as to be compatible with your average coctail game....??

Any places online?

er... no.. but what about going to your local unfinished hardware / furniture mill buy one of their stools and cut the legs down if necessary (or maybe check out if they have "kiddie" stools...)

Just an alternative idea.  It's not like you aren't capable of doing a "stool" mod/hack =P  (now where is that link to motorized bar stools)

Hit the local musical instrument store, and look at cheap drum thrones.  They sit about chair height, and are as close to a low stool as you can get.  Darn comfy too.

You also could hit the local OfficeWhatever store and get an armless office chair, and just not put the back on it.  I've seen $20 or less brand new assemble-it-yourself office chairs.

I use the chairs out from under the kitchen table...

Hmmm..actually I was kinda hopin to find some of those comfy lounge-chairs.....slightly larger than your average stool...I want these to be at least reasonably comfortable...maybe with a back.

Hmmmm.

Hmmmm indeed...

Plastic blow up chairs. They are comfy, low to the ground and cheap. They meet all the criteria. http://www.inflateus.com/inflatable_chairs.htm or i think you can get them at like target or some place like that.

i bought an old, "broken" cocktail from an Italian Villa resteraunt downtown. guy gave me everything he had with cocktail, including the booth (yes, a booth) its awesome. it is sooo comfy. oh, and the broken board needed to be grounded. it happens to be a ms. pac, really fun ;D

edit: oh, yeah. if i were you, i'd buy a small diner booth, or small loveseat. it beats a wood stool anyday.

EHHHH I dont have that kinda space..plus my Coctail is going to be one of those 3-sided jobs.  One vertical side will have certain controls, other vert side will have different controls, and lastly one of the long horizontal sides will have a dual "fighter" game style setup...

So I gotta have something that can hopefully move around a bit..
