Neat table, thank you!

Thanks for the advice Pilou.

To be honest I'm a bit intimidated by Sketchyphysics, so I'll try and figure something out with CompoSpray.

Would I be right in thinking that CompoSpray doesn't work within a volume, but I could achieve what I want by stacking planes with components sprayed onto them (deleting the planes afterwards)?

Or did you have some other technique in mind?

I've inadvertently stumbled onto the correct identity for this chair and solved the mystery.

It was a bit weird really as I was looking for something completely different - I was searching for interesting 70s and 80s gadgets for the latest speed modelling challenge and an image of the chair popped up during a Google images search:
