Question:

how to assemble a bentwood chair?

Bought a chair over the internet...no parts list or instructions. Any suggestions?

Answer:

1.)Get a picture of the chair you bought from the internet, print it. Then separate all of the parts using the photo as a guide. 2.)Make sure all of the parts FIT! Preliminary assembly will be key to a successful project. 3.) Lightly wax the ends of each of the spindles, legs, crossbars, and braces, this will make insertion easier and prevent wood swell. 4.)Assemble the legs, braces and crossbars, secure them to the bottom of the seat, then insert spindles to the top of the seat, then attach the spindle frame . Assemble and attach arms last. I use Bee's Knee's Zipper Wax. It is 100% natural and is beneficial to the wood, not like paraffin, that contains methane and octane and I want those chemicals no where near my fine wooden furniture. Good Luck and have fun!... PS don't forget a touch of wood glue in each hole, ONLY after you are sure it perfect!
