what do you think of this stool?
Besides looking like you're walking around with a stick hanging out of your arse I like it and want one.

Its a milking stool.

Very clever
I like the idea. I think it's even kind of funny when not being used. Might look like you have a tail. Of course, it's only really useful to sit on hard surfaces. If you tried to use it in a park, you'd sink into the grass with that small of a foot.

Spoken
like a true designer !

Even more minimal than a seat cane -- and certainly more than Tage Frid's little tripod stool.

if you get
one the you will be needing to get a Cow.

My friend in Denmark, Bent, always wore one when milking and therefore I see no reason for wanting one unless you have a cow!
Sorry no pun intended.

Maybe a redsign to merge the milking stool with the walking stick to create a new less obvious design that would always to at hand could be thought of?

A tremendous amount of...
A tremendous amount of design has gone into dairyland over the past fifty years, making the milking stool almost obsolete, if not antique.

I suppose you can find folks occasionally still on stools in Wisconsin or Nebraska these days, but for the most part no stools are necessary, one-legged or three, just high-tech modern milking machines and good old teats.

This one pictured could come in handy at a good dorm party, when all the best seats have been taken, not to mention being a nice conversation starter ...

got, milk.
