Where do I find one?
If you are up for a fun project, you can choose from two methods for making your own chair. If you’d like to purchase one that’s already cut out and ready for easy assembly, we have that option too.
CNC Router
Using a CNC router to cut the chair pieces. Get as many as six chairs from one standard sheet of plywood.

ButtOn Chair Features
Handy-Dandy Handle
A handle built into the leg for easy carrying.
No Glue or Screws
We designed special joinery so the pieces just snap together. Just bang it together with a rubber mallet, no fasteners necessary.
Non-Slip Seat
Our seat is textured so students won’t slip off while they’re rocking. Also included in the box is a 1/2" thick, blue seat pad for cushioning.
Adjustable Height
We offer three different sizes, but if a child is in between the sizes, we provide guiding marks on the legs so you can saw them off to be the correct size.
Affordable
By using an old tennis ball or lacrosse ball, we offer active sitting on the cheap.
Educational
Teach kids how to either build a chair from a computer file or from hand tool instructions.
Compostable
(except for the tennis ball)
