Groop,
This photo of a Scandinavian residential chair is typical of this
manufacturers breakage. The Mfr. Has more than one style using this type
of leg structure. The customer, whom I've helped about a year ago with
another project is shipping the two broken pieces plus a good piece
for us to repair or duplicate.
I'll let y'all know in about 4 weeks what the result is.
**Results below**
Don Weisman, TX
DonW give his 4 week report:
Labor to make form-5 hours.
Labor to prepare veneer, dry clamp, pre-bend (guitar-bending element,)
glue and clamp-5 1/2 hours.
Labor to complete shaping and boring-2 3/4 hours.
Plus above required materials.
Beech on each face and Poplar was used for interior veneer.
Hide glue was the adhesive.
Customers note:
Don,
The new piece looks wonderful! Well done. Please finish the new leg and
send me an updated invoice - and the items of course!
Many thanks!
