Cool patio chair, can I ask where you got that?

I’ve not read this book but used to do some sailboat rigging, and I would avoid We$t Marine if possible. Personally I used to go to RW Rope because I lived nearby (but they also sell online). I’ve also ordered from knotandrope.com but not for marine stuff.
