[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2871363, member: 29706"] Very interesting. So here is my throw in. My Mother in Law has been in a power chair for as long as I have known her and while you can have a raised height toilet put in an apartment most places require them to be left when you move out. Add to that needing a little extra wiggle room for shifting and I came up with this. [ATTACH]55380[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]55381[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]55382[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]55383[/ATTACH] Everything is 3/4 plywood except for the blocks on the front rim. The block on the back of the rim is hollow and allows carriage bolts to pass through to the tank which is the only point of attachment. Weight is spread evenly to the bowl and box legs depending on where the user is situated and allows her to transfer from her chair which is brought in at a 90 degree angle from the toilet and shift over as she needs with a minimal gap. She has used this for over seven years and it has been in use in three different states with only minor modifications. Needless to say it has been well used and is much more sturdy and stable than some of the aluminium and plastic risers while adding extra space for positioning. [/QUOTE]
