My chair leans to one side because a rivet is missing. I put some epoxy on the joint last night before leaving my office and let it sit overnight. The stuff says it can hold 5000 (five thousand) pounds of pressure. My chair just broke. hahaha

(BTW, I only weigh 175... at least that is what I thought. haha)

I guess I need to find some JB weld or something.

 

....or a new chair

 

I love this chair though. It is hand carved solid wood. An older client gave me this chair as he was retiring and closing his office. He said he bought in 1966... it has lots of "charcter"... Can you imagine sitting in the same chair for forty years.

 

Doesn't that gross you out that he farted in your chair for 40 years?

 

LOL

HAHA

 

Sadly that's exactly the same thought that I had immediately upon reading the post.

 

 

Did the chair belong to 8D?

 

you know, the 5000lbs is not the correct figure for the glue. It depends on many factors (surface, surface area, drying time).
also, even though the chair may hold 175lbs, the pressure on the joint maybe much higher than 175lbs.
