    Everyone keeps commenting on how easy of a repair it will be, but I suspect folks are missing the damage that occurred on the dowel end that recesses into the arm rest. It appears that the entire dowel end has broken off from the rest of the upright and is a splintered mess dangling out from the bottom of the arm rest.

    Reattaching the upright to the bottom joist is easy. Repairing the dowel end is going to be tough, IMO.

    Somebody did a number on your chair.

    Glad I'm not the only one who saw that.

    Nope. I didn't miss it. It is an easy repair. He appears to have all of the wood pieces. You would be surprised what you can do with Elmer's Wood Glue and a clamp.

    I cannot believe that this discussion has managed to not degenerate into a weight loss advice thread.....

    Clamps, glue, and maybe a screw or two.
