I use an old R Whites Lemonade plastic crate with a pillow, seen years of use and still works fine.

Not sure how much this will be with the Trade Card

 

I use a child’s plastic chair from when my daughter was little.
Works a treat.

 

Or search for Salon Massage stools on Ebay - from £20 ish

 

I've got something like this, not exactly the same make, but handy for putting bits and bobs underneath as you work. Even using a bike lift, sometimes I have used it when working under the bike.



Also, if you haven't got one, get a kneeling mat. There are times when you can't be bothered with putting the bike on the ramp for a 5 min job and want to kneel on the floor. Invaluable for old man's knees.

Kneeling Mat

 

i picked up one of theses-

but i paid about 40 bucks for it on amazon. its a nice height and has a storage shelve and platz for a bucket etc

 

Or if you like looks over function, put some more small castors in the bottom of these (they are boot storage stools for the pit) with the graphic of the model of your bike on them.

Not practical but they look great.

 

Ive also got a couple of these (different name and colour), My dad stole the first one so had to get another , Not great quality but for the money there still going strong, Could never be without one now

 

From the school of tight arse. I have seen some when doing cafe reps, use a skateboard deck as the seat





So why not use an old motorbike seat of any kind, and attach it to an old skateboard? It will keep you off the cold floor, wide enough for most fat arses, raises you enough to do work, and it's moveable whilst on it. Plus the kids can play with it when you're not.

 

Coz you have to buy an old bike seat, an old skateboard, 2 rolls of gaffer tape and a paper bag to put over your head as you use it. All a bit more expensive than buying a proper garage seat.

 

Be honest Rob, look at that list you've given and apart from stealing the kids skateboard, what biker hasn't got the rest of that stuff, justified to the mrs as "just in case" ?

Workshop stool? Na mate I (almost) always use the loo

 

I always have one of these as a workshop stool - free when they're being thrown out of offices once the backs break, they can carry quite a load, so I use them for wheeling engines around, (hence the grubbyness) height adjustable and all day comfortable
