  • Fixing the wooden frame of a lazy-boy like recliner. The frame for the seat broke apart, due to weak joinery. I made some new wooden parts to make it stronger than new. There wasn't anything wrong with the reclining mechanism.

    The craftsmanship in those brackets is 10 times better than the chair as a whole...

    My other half would murder me if I brought a sofa back I found on the street. 😅

    I fix those recliners too, but my brother has become a "master" at fixing them! He picks up everyone he see's, and salvages all the good parts for his parts collection! He also makes what ever else he needs to get them, and keep them going. SR

    Your enthusiasm has received a boost from the curb.

    have you considered this to be a video series? fixing broken furniture and where you show their failure mode and reenginner around the failure, I think people will find that interesting to watch

    My only complaint is there wasn’t a long awkward stare into the camera at the end

    That freaking second corner brace is why you are an amazing inspiration to me. I would hope that my future fixes will go to the same extent as to improve an item in addition to just fixing it.

    Glad I found your channel, now I don’t have to throw out my recliner

    The firewood is higher quality wood than is used to make those chairs these days. They really aren't worth what they charge for them anymore.

    Seems with brackets like those, quality has definitely gone out the window Matthias. Great fix mate

    Great job, much better for the environment than going to landfill, and must have been satisfying to repair too.

    I had a similar chair with a very similar failure, I had more wood to work with on mind so I just replaced the staples with glue and wood screes. Seems to be working.
