Hey Rev.

I thought of something when I read your post.  Have you seen those camping
chairs where you sit on the ground but it has a back support?  They fold up
for backpacking.  You lean back a little but you could pull the coffee table
up a little closer.  Just a thought.

I've recently found that it's better for me to have what I'm building raised
up a bit, more at eye level, which is closer to how I eventually photograph
it, so I tend to sit on the floor while building on the coffee table.

But I'm open to new suggestions, too, because my back gets pretty sore after
an extended building session.
