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 :)

A proposed Māori tourism centre near Hamilton Gardens is seen by some as a game changer for the city.
Do you agree?
Waikato Tainui has made the suggestion to Hamilton City Council as the council nuts out a revamp of the gardens.
Mayor Andrew King said a busload of tourists visiting the gardens would also be able to pre-book a cultural show at the same place.
He hoped it would encourage more visitors into overnight stays, instead of a stop on the way to another destination.
