It’s always something, isn’t it?

In this case a dining room chair. And I don't have a clamp long enough for this application. At least it came apart enough that I can get lots of glue into the mortise.

Watch “Home Town”? Ben has a sign in his shop that says “You can never have enough clamps.” Indeed! But they need a place to live when they’re not being used.

Ben has amazing talent. Love watching them.

@danette They are our favorite. They seem to be the most forthright and honest. We also watch “Good Bones,” but Mina seems to have trouble completing the flip on their spec projects. I realize that it's in the nature of what they're trying to do (revive run-down neighborhoods), but still... I think “Two Chicks and a Hammer” carries *a lot* of inventory.

Ha! I love that show (Home Town)! Hope the glue lasts!

@thewatersphotos Not a high-stress joint, I wouldn't think. But then the factory glue only held for 21 years, so maybe it gets more torquing than I think!
