Chairs to fit 60 inch round table?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

How many people you usually want to seat and the amount of comfort you want to have will help you choose the right chairs for a 60-inch round table. You can do any of these:

For eight people:

Pick chairs with seats that are 17 to 18 inches wide and 17 to 19 inches high. These are the standard eating chairs. This gives you enough leg room and makes it easy to get to the table. Pick out chairs with or without arms, based on your taste.

Chairs without arms can give your friends more room at the table, especially if you need to fit 8 people. For more comfort, choose chairs with seats that are 18 to 20 inches bigger.

Cushioned chairs: If you want to be more comfortable during longer meals, think about getting upholstered chairs. Pick cloth that doesn't stain easily if you tend to spill things.

For 10 Guests (tight fit):

If you don't have a lot of room, stacking chairs may be a good choice because they are easy to put away when not in use. To save room, pick chairs with seats that are 16 to 17 inches wide and don't have arms.

Chairs or stools: If you put stools at the ends of the table, they can save room compared to chairs. You can also use benches, but make sure they are comfortable to sit on for a long time.

Some more things to think about:

Table height: For a relaxing meal, make sure that the seat height of the chairs matches the height of the table.

Look: Pick chairs that match the style of your table and eating room.

Material: Think about materials like metal, wood, or wicker based on the look you want, how long you want it to last, and how much upkeep you want to do.

Here are some broad ideas:

Leaving at least 24 to 26 inches of space between the chairs and the edge of the table will make it easy for people to get in and out.

Make sure the chairs are comfortable and the right size for your table and eating area before you buy them.

To make the room look more interesting, mix the types of the chairs.

The best chairs for your 60-inch round table are the ones that fit your wants and tastes the best.

Some of the blocks weigh as much as 80 tons!

How many days have there been since the birth of jesus?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

2010 years.

Answer:

This is a wide open question with a number of possible answers. If it is cut off and incomplete, like:

"How many years has it been since Jesus..." was born?

or

"How many years has it been since Jesus..." ascended into heaven?

Give or take a few years... both of these can be answered the same: "More than two-thousand years ago."

Prophetically speaking: "...beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." (II Peter 3:8)

That would make it a little over "two days ago."

If the question is asking, "How many years has it been since Jesus.." recreated the earth?

"Since Jesus recreated the earth from Genesis 1:3, it's been somewhere between five and six thousand years."

If it's truly asking, "How many years has it been since Jesus?"

He is "Eternal"... "JHVH"... "I AM"... "He Exists"... "WAS, IS, SHALL BE": and within that frame of reference, which is inconceivable to the finite human mind... time ceases to exist.
