A few years ago we purchased a spectacular dining room table and chairs from an estate sale. For the cool price of $350 we had a complete table with 3 leaves and 6 chairs. It was made some time in the 1970s, is made from solid maple, and is in nearly unused condition. It does have one problem. It is old and some of the glue joints are beginning to dry out. The chair in this video came apart. Surprisingly there was no damage to the wood. The glue joints just failed. So, a little sanding, clamping, and cleaning brought the chair back to being usable.
