Hello all, I have begun work on Pierre's bonocular chair and have launched a web page to document my progress. It's still under construction, and should remain so until the chair is completed. Follow the link to my web pages below and click on ATM pages in the "Interior Links" menu at left. (This page will also be placed on the SAC website, but I'm not sure when.) Anyone having first hand experience with the workings, operation or construction of this wonderful instrument is encouraged to email me off list with any information they'd like to share. The more specific, the better. How did it feel to sit in it, how were the views, did it move smoothly, how long did the battery last and so on. If you'd like to help in the restoration and can provide any insights just drop me a note. Wish me luck, and I hope I can do justice to this unique piece.
