    Where to find Tilt/Swivel Hardware for Office Chair

    I'm planning to build an office chair, but can't find the appropriate tilt/swivel hardware. Rockler has swivel hardware, but not Tilt. Does anyone have a source? I'm hoping to use the most heavy-duty hardware I can find.

    Bill,

    How about an all in one unit?

    Swivel/Rock from Lee Valley

    Thanks! Yes, I saw that one and I think it's my top choice in the absence of a true locking tilt/swivel mechanism. Where do the manufacturers source this stuff? Someone must know.

    I would try Don Weisman at Abacus here in Houston. http://swivel-chair-parts.com

    Todd,

    Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. I'll use your source. I don't know why that one didn't show up in my Google or Yahoo searches.
