Does anyone know where I can go to get something made to hold the chair firm and basically stop the rocking mechanism from being able to rock? I had a look on google and you can get wooden blockers but I’m not sure where to go to have one made up as all the carpenters seem to be cabinet/kitchen focussed, not a little job like this. Thanks in advance for any help pointing me in the right direction :)
