I posted this on the finishing forum but thought i might get better luck here.
Has anyone got any tips on fixing these lovely old beasts.
Their main old age probs seem to be the bentwood "springing" on the bent bits and the legs getting the wobbles.(sounds like me)
Ive had a few of these to fix and never with much success
It seems that the legs twist out of true and wont go back where there suposed to.
Ive tried wetting up the steamed wood and clamping it back but it wont stay put.
Any sugestions?
