How did this red inner wheel break? It seems to have slide against tje back casing as a result. Can this be glued back on or needs to be completely replaced?

I can’t pass up a good small box or container but then I find myself losing valuable space to empty containers with “potential”. Does anyone else have this problem? I do t want to toss them but I’ve spent many an evening wondering what the heck I can put inside them.

Chairmaking member u/stanchnick has been featured with his Layout Computer in issue number 4 of the Stick Chair Journal so I just wanted to give him some recognition. I'm sure those on this sub are Lost Art Press fans and have also seen the Layout Computer mentioned in some posts on this sub (and I've also had it linked on the right-hand links for a while now). It's pretty cool to have something you made for personal use to solve a problem get featured in print alongside your name. I'm a software engineer myself and of a similar age and can never seem to think of ways I can use my skill to solve problems outside of work so I admire those who can.

Something wet was placed on the seat overnight. The finish is black milk paint with three coats of tung oil on top. Is there anything to do to get rid of those appearance without fully stripping it down and starting over?

Last year we put in a new spark plug and changed the carburetor. It would start and sputter out after five seconds. Each time. Oil was changed as well. Also the air filter is new.

This year it doesn’t start at all. New gasoline and nothing. This engine doesnt have a prime button or choke to play with. My father-in-law suggested maybe the tiny hole in the gas cap was clogged, but this one has never had a hole so I don’t think it was supposed to?

It’s a mother duck and three babies ducklings following. The first duck is missing so now there’s just two ducklings. I’d like to either fully patch this hole in the back, or find a way to attach them whej it’s not a simple crack or seam to patch.

A stick chair on the left!

Anyone better than me that can determine the angles for the leitrim chair legs and back sticks?

The legs look to be the same angle for rake and splay on all four legs so it simplifies thing but I'd like to have a target to aim for without being too worried about it. I want to keep the roughly same vertical looking legs.

For the back sticks It's prbably a straight line front to back right? in which case I can figure out the side angles of the back sticks. But if someone knows them ahead of time, that'd be great

I know the user behind the Crooked Stool Workshop (I forget your reddit handle...is it u/NotAChef_2318 ?) made one, and I think on his post I see 13 degrees for the leg bevel. marked on the underside of the seat. He looks to have met the original angles pretty closely but I'm wondering if others agree on that angle. He did change the back sticks though so I still need to work that one out.
