I painted a wooden chair and the leg got busted off. How can I fix it?

Question

Please help... I worked really hard painting this chair and it got thrown so that the leg is busted off. How can i fix it? Glue and clamps? Nails?

Thanks so much!

Answer 1

wood glue, clamps, wood screws, drill, tape, wood putty, sandpaper, paint.

piece the parts together without glue.  tape in place.  use a drill to drill a hole through both pieces.  untape.  use wood glue per directions. put pieces together and use wood s***w to secure. may also need clamps.  try to sink the wood s***w into the wood a little so that you can cover the hole with wood putty and then sand it and paint over it when dry.  it should hide the repair.
