Bruce you mentioned something about seats and that got me to thinking that it might make a good subject here.
You may have already tried this kind but this is what I use at every stand that I don't walk off and forget at the truck.
I can't remember what they are called , but they is simply a flat slightly padded seat piece attached to a back piece along the back of the bottom and on the sides with straps.
I didn't like the amount of padding in the bottom so I used some saddle makers glue to overlay the bottom with a piece of 1/2" closed cell sleeping pad.
I know that since I started using it I have often wondered why I waited so long to get one. I had a horse flip over on me a few weeks ago and hurt my lower back. There is no way I could sit on a stand without the back support now.
It really makes a big difference in my comfort level and I have not had one piece of cactus come up through the bottom "yet"
I purchased it at Big 5 sporting goods for about $20.
Hope this helps a little.
