Using JB Weld on a chair?

Just pull the base off and set the chair on 2 saw horses- - -

You could hang it from the ceiling. Suspended chairs have interesting dynamics. I made a hanging crescent moon like this that was fun to sit on and swing around. Naturally it had to be thoroughly tested before the actress sat on it.

It somehow vanished after the show closed, but I did get to keep part of the "Jackson Pollack" painting.

JB Weld will be fine when you make a lamp out of the pintle hitch and a lunette ring. I have a collection of lamp base candidates, including a Honda Accord camshaft.

Hey, I thought Ernie was our only prop-maker on RCM.

Whatever for?

It absolutely does. Decent beer gets you a decent job. Rotgut gets you thrown out.

You found out that schools aren't the best places for high-quality work, didja, Pete?

Saw ponies for chairs, saw horses for bar stools.

JBW for the first sitting. Just -don't- lean over.

Try wrapping it with a copy of your ins. policy.

It was a nearly lifesize imitation of "Convergence" so quartering it didn't give up anything except its awkward original size.

Painting it was more like a silly food fight. We restrained ourselves to flinging quips instead of paint.

I'll keep that in mind. (I also know that there is a difference between "inexpensive" and "cheap".)

Actually it was my saw blade, a thin slitting saw, which somehow had gotten dull on one side. So the sharp side cut nicely, but the other didn't - and it "skewed". I took it over to the guys in the welding program shop, they filled in the kerf - rather nice job, too - and I got a sharp blade for the second attempt. Had to mill off the weld to flush with the face, but "I are Machinist!"

I rest my case, with you proving it for me. ;)

Hmmm, I got some regular old copper rivets, they might work.

You want pure lead rivets. Super strong, like copper, but better.

I don't think so. This chair is going to be out in the open.

Besides, I'm saving the lead for other purposes.
