    Actually, I believe that Earnshaw said that you cannot get stable levitation with a static magnetic field (ie, one that isn't confined to certain restraints as the OP is planning on limiting the chairs movement to vertical).

                    Damn you, I was about to post that link! I've spent a lot of money there purely for sheer enjoyment. The N52 magnets really aren't that pricey in smaller sizes so you should be able to achieve your goals for around a $100 or so. More small magnets will also be a little safer too but you still have to be careful, I have a 1" N52 cube that I'm actually scared of. I bought a 1/2"x3/4" N52 block and the two flew together (chipping the smaller block) and I have not been able to get them apart. They have proven useful though, especially when the handle broke off of my oven and I couldn't get it open.

                        You may also want to look at something like this too... Maybe an email to them isn't such a bad idea!

                                That blows. I MSPainted you a schematic for a MagChairtm.



                                I hope that cheers you up after the loss of your turn signal.
