    East Stand seats...

    Who's all collected so far?? I had read on here that some folk had picked up so I jst popped over to the ticket office this morning to get mines...The guy was really sheepish about it saying there are no seats for collection. He said 'When did u buy them?' I said 'Weeks ago when they were for sale!?!' Oh well theres none here sorry! Explained that id read on .net that some had been picked up. He said, well there were a few collected but theres none at the moment. Couldnt give any indication when they would have any more. Seems strange seeing as every last one has now bn ripped out and are obviously sitting somewhere...

    I've got one sitting in my living room at the moment. Delivered by a fine young chap the other week

    Needs a bit of a scrub though, and then making a wee garden seat for the Grandson

    We are hanging on to a 2-1 lead in a cup quarter final and this is your main concern. God bless Hibs fans, we love a good whinge.

    Four years on and the two east stand seats I bought are still under the spare room bed! Ideally I'd like to make them into two stools for my living room. Anyone done similar and where did you get it done?

    Which IKEA seat did you use for that? I'm really struggling to find a pre-manufactured wooden stool with the same seat dimensions as the plastic seat - ideally I'd like something I could screw two self tapping screws into without any further work!

    Now well over five years since the seats were picked up but I was reminded when clearing under the bed that I still hadn't done anything about it. Anyone able to point me in the direction of a joiner who can help or else where a suitable pre-made stool can be found?

    I had a pre made stool earlier but not sure it would help you here.

    Sorry I never replied sooner
    I used väddö from Ikea and it was real simple... and it's still going strong!

    I bought cubic storage units from ikea for a tenner or something that where the perfect size to just clip the seat on top. Tried to find a link but don't seem to be on their website anymore

    Only taken a decade but finally got my old East Stand seats mounted on to stools! After trying (and failing) to find a joiner to build these from scratch, I found stools with dimensions more or less bang on with the seat - https://www.homesdirect365.co.uk//te...-p56803/s61200). Only down side was the six week lead time on delivery. I then drilled two 8mm holes in line with the holes in the seat and used M8 x 70mm roofing bolts to attach seat to stool. Could probably have got away with 60mm bolts. I know there are a few folk in the group looking to do similar so thought worth sharing. The closest thing to watching games at Easter Road! ��

    Tremendous. A big regret of mines was not taking my East seat in 2010.

    Likewise. If anyone has any of the seats they aren't going to use I'd love to make something for the garden. Happy to pay obviously
