"Repaired with 2 nails?!!!😅So your vid gives me prompt instructions hpe yp save this awesome piece og furniture.
Bought for 12 bucks at charity place but eill look rxpensive when I'm done.
Many thanks.
That’s fantastic, it’s always great to save old furniture and give it new life. My chair is still going strong, no issues with the fix

Good to know that is standing strong cause mine is going to be a family heirloom perhaps ...
Hahaha ha.
Good luck with yours .
This video popped up in my feed, so I had to check it out! I like the use of dowels to give it a little more support. Gives it some character too!
White Lab Workshop wow that’s great and thanks for the support as always. Yeah didn’t want to spend time and effort on a chair that was bought at resale for a few $...lol
Loved your last project on your great channel by the way.
Longhorn Workshop Thanks man!
Awesome. Just used your video to fix a bumper pool table. Great technique! Thanks👍
Thank you so much for the feedback and leaving a comment. Glad it helped and my chair leg is still solid after all these years.
Great vid tip, a new dowel trick I have now learned. 👍
Thanks appreciate that
Thank you teacher
RAJU MUSIC thanks for the comment, appreciate it
Thanks for sharing. I plan to do your repair to a old chair of mine
Thanks and glad it helped.
Brilliant! Thanks so much.
Thanks hope it helped
Omg, gluing up first THEN putting in the dowel..... brilliant! I've been making myself crazy wondering how to properly drill the broken dowel out of my broken chair leg and drill a compatible dowel hole on the other piece of the broken leg and get them to match. THANK YOU!!
Thanks for the kind words, hope you are able to repair your chair as well.
Would drilling and placing a metal rod down the center of the chair leg guarantee more strength? The splintered part is about 4" long. Thank you.
Thanks...Great video! I needed this to learn the procedure to repair my chair back
Excellent hope it helped and that you can save the chair from landfill
Thanks a bunch for posting. Exactly what I was looking for to fix my chair.
Excellent glad it helped. Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment
Good job. Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks appreciate your comment
This could not have come at a better time. I have two hairs I need fixing!! Great tips!! Thanks!!
Moody Blooms thanks, it’s not fine furniture so it’s just a fix anyone can do...👍
That looks like a strong reparation! well done my friend!
Thank you sir, appreciate it.
Brilliant work. Looks very strong.
Thanks, still holding strong after almost 2 years
Well done, looks very strong connection!
Thanks, it’s still holding strong....
Thanks for that.
It's almost exactly what i want to know. X
Thanks for the support and glad it helped.

Samuel Medina hey thanks for the comment and watching, appreciate it.
This is exactly what I needed to see!
Thanks so much that’s really appreciated and glad to know it helped. Idea was for an easy and quick fix. The chair leg is still holding strong on my chair
If you haven’t done so yet would appreciate if you subscribe to the channel.That would really help us produce more content ...
Nice repair.. thanks
Thanks
Good repair video. Thanks
Thank you
I really like the dowels on there, adds character. I don't really know how you could fix that any other way short of building a new leg.
Thanks! It's an old chair bought at a resale store for $10. Hence a quick fix, else the fix would cost more than the chair...lol
Thanks for the support, appreciate it.
Wow,great job🤗
Thanks
Very cool, what a great idea 😁
Naptime Creations thanks it really was a quick fix that anyone came do.
@@LonghornWorkshop 😁😁😁 awesome
U are really good
Thanks you very much for watching and commenting
When you kicked it, for some reason I imagined the other legs snapping instead of the leg you fixed. Informative video!
Lol yeah that would not have been good. The glued leg is still holding great. Thanks for watching appreciate it.
Nice work ♥️
Thanks really appreciate that
super tutorial, thanks
Thank you
Hello my friend. I like items of this kind design. A nice repair. You did a good refurbishment. Congratulations. The chair came back to life. Thank you for sharing. Warm hug. Yours truly...
Appreciate your kind words. The chair is still standing, glad I was able to save it.
@@LonghornWorkshop Thank you too. See you
Gracias !!
Thank you
Dowels can be very useful for stuff like this! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, it's still holding strong. Probably something else will break before that joint...lol
merhaba dostum. Gerçek bir ustasın. Güzel bir tamir oldu. Dübel atarak çok sağlam iş yaptın. Sandalye seni gördüğüne çok memnun olmuştur. Yoksa kırık ayakla bir köşede kalacaktı. Bende yeni bir sehpa tamiri yaptım. Ayakları kırıktı. Hemen aklıma sehpa geldi. Oda artık dört ayağı üstünde durabiliyor.
Thank you Engin mate, yes its nice to repair then let it go to the dump yard.
I love how we can chat and be connected being in two different countries. Love your work and can't wait to see your next project.
good job
Thanks
Great fix bud.
O.G.B Woodwork thanks and still holding strong
Longhorn Workshop good to hear. It’s a tip that I’ll always remember.
Great repair my friend :) ॐ
👋
Just bought some beautiful dining chairs and one of them fell out of my trunk as I was loading them in due to the street being on a slope and my disappointment after some curse words… I am excited to fix my chair up with your help from this video, the materials are so inexpensive (thank goodness I already have a drill with attachments)
Sorry that your broke a new chair. But hope this helps, my chair is still solid as a rock after fixed it. Good luck!!
Saw dust and glue? 🤯
I've seen a lot of wood repair videos and no one have ever showed this technique. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks is and old trick but a good one, basically wood filler
You aced it...
Kelly Smith thank you sir, appreciate it
Thank you. I need to fix the arm of my dad's chair and I had no idea how to do so properly. Just gluing didn't work, so I came to TH-cam.
Great, hope you can get it done!
I have a nice canoe paddle that has a split handle....going to give this a try....I subbed and thank U!
Thanks sir, just made the visit to your great channel as well and now following.
Have been sitting on the chair everyday and still holding rock solid
I can see why it's holding up......very intelligent repair....impressive....and thank U Sir :)
Nice save on the chair, I think a little amber shellac might have matched the color better.
Thanks and you are right on the color.
Wow! This is the best idea to fix a broken wooden ladder. :)
RV STUFFS TV VLOGS thanks
I like the random chicken at the start. He just chillin
Lol, those chickens are a little crazy.
Looks like that ought to do it!
Thsnks, I hope so. At least till we find new chairs.
Thanks for watching as always.
I have a splintered off wodden bar in the futon. The break is bad. Watching your video serves as good example where I should start.
Thank you, hope you can save the futon.
Doesn't look even close to being wobbly. Wood glue and dowels are an amazing thing!
Thanks, I think it will stay good for a while.
Thanks again for the commenting...
Thank you so much. I have a dresser leg that broke. I thought I'd have to throw it away.
Thanks and hope you are able to save the dresser. My chair is still strong no issues
Super fix mate and very enjoyable little vid. I'm beginning to think you might not be a native Texan though; those three lions are a bit of a giveaway;-) Cheers mate!
Yeah not native TX, originally a Essex wide boy.
Thanks for watching and the kind words.
Cheers...
Lucas Wood & Art Hey mate, I'd never have guessed! Looking forward to more of your stuff - it's genuinely very enjoyable.
Great tips! What glue are you using?
Just any good wood glue, I am using titebond good glue that you can buy at any Home Depot or Lowe’s. You can also use elmers wood glue.
Whatever material and tools you used, would have been helpful if you had shown what they are and where to get them
Thanks for the feedback, trying to do better in my recent videos.
He said in the video wood glue and saw dust. In the title of the video it says dowels. Sandpaper and clamps are shown all items available at your favorite Wal-Mart. Did you need him to hold your hand through this?
You should have replaced the entire section with a new piece of wood connecting them internally with a dowel and glue. That would have created a much stronger fix.
Actually the chair leg is still holding strong without issues after all this time.
While it may seem a better way to do what you suggested it’s not really a DIY job, but yes there are better ways to fix this issue.
👍👍👍🔥💪🤠
Thanks
☑️☑️
I think with a little bit more effort you could have made the two pieces fit together closer and better,, all and all you had the right ideal. It seemed that speed was your top priority rather than the quality of the work you were doing. Maybe next time try using a Dremel Tool with a carbide double cut rotary bit to clean out old glue so the two pieces fit together tightly. If the Dremel isnt available a knife will work. Best of luck in your next woodworking project.
Thanks for watching and your comments. Would love to have you subscribe to my channel. Thanks...
Nice repair. Especially loving the England shirt. You don't sound like a fellow Brit though?
Home Workshop Projects thanks mate, appreciate it, been in the US for almost 30 years now. Came over from Ilford, Essex...
Just subbed your channel, looking forward to see you growing your channel.
Cheers...
@@LonghornWorkshop Small world, I'm originally from Wanstead, just the other side of Redbridge Roundabout from you. I went to Wanstead High School. What about you?
Home Workshop Projects lol yeah i know all that part of England, I still visit 🇬🇧 to see the family. Went to Lister School not too far from Upton Park, and the mighty Hammers....lol
@@LonghornWorkshop Hahaha, Up the Spurs!!!
What kind of glue you use ?
Thanks for watching and the comment. Any good quality wood glue will work, i always use Titebond wood glue you can buy at and big store like Home Depot or Lowe’s.
Looks strong enough! But I think the Mattias Wandel test would have been much more forceful! 🍻
Lol yeah wasn't about to take a running leap onto the chair. Although that would have been cool...
Thanks as always for watching and commenting. It's very much appreciated.
Which lucked use for juaintig
Do you mean which glue? I used titebond wood glue, and good quality wood glue will work.
What drill bit did you use?
Any drill that matches your dowel size will work fine. You don’t want the dowel to be too tight or too loose. Test the fit on some scrap wood first. Hope n that helps
Hi what glue do you use please ?
Thanks for watching and the comment. Any good quality wood glue will work, i always use Titebond wood glue you can buy at and big store like Home Depot or Lowe’s.
@@LonghornWorkshop thank you for quick replay .is this glue better( stronger) then gorilla wood glue ?
@@RandomVibes505 same Gorilla good glue is also great
@@LonghornWorkshop thank you
Post your videos on Rumble.
Woodglut has a lot of designs to choose from.
Woodglut Blueprints has some very useful blueprints with all the details you need.
What is fun to show a hen
Haha yes always good
I guessed the wood filler didn't do anything
The wood filler is just to fill in the gaps.
this didnt help me when broke my leg playing kick the baby
Oh well, some you win some you lose.
Can’t I just use gorilla glue 🧐🧐
Selma Keeley Gorilla is a brand name and they make different types of glue. For example they do make wood glue as well as supper glue, 2 part epoxy...etc some of the gorilla glue they make expands so that would not be any good.
Using wood glue is best option in cases like this no matter who makes it. Hope that helps...
Just didn't look nice finished job
Thanks for watching and the comment. It was a old chair so didn't want to spend too much time and effort on it.
Please subscribe to my channel, would love to have you review more of my projects.
There is a chair. Its leg is broken.
Complex it using relative pronoun 👍
I started with Woodglut plans.
