Hello everyone.
here is part two.
The method is called a Dutchman.
By adding two pieces of wood on the opposite sides of the break you make a
very solid repair. with some filing and sanding trying not to damage any of the
art work on the leg, I was able to get the patch looking pretty good. once the
die and sealer was applied the damaged leg repairs almost disappear.
Please let me know what you guys think?
Talk to you all latter.

Hello Everyone
I know for my self,I've been so very busy that I have not had a lot of time
to get much done in the shop lately.
Although having said that I did get a table leg repaired for a gentleman.
One small problem was that the table leg could not be removed from its
base, so I needed to come up with a way to hold the leg inside the rails to the
Legacy.
Im going to send four pictures with this posting and four more in another.
The table leg was badly broken, what I did was to glue the broken parts
back together.
Once the leg was glued back together I mounted the leg on the Legacy and
cut into the leg a 1/2" to make my mortise.
Once cut, I glued a piece of mahogany into the gap that I just cut.
After the glue dried I repeated the process again for the other side of the
leg.
So now I have two spines cut into the leg of the table. Now its time for a
little filing and sanding.
On the next post I will show you how it turned out.
C.A.G.
