Convertible High Chair/Table


Donna requested that I restore this convertible high chair/table.  It was in pretty bad shape, structurally, most likely due to excessive exposure to moisture and temperature changes.  The seat was falling apart, all the joints were loose, the base/table plate was wrinkled, loose and decayed with the plywood laminations separated from each other.  Other problems included mismatched bolts and screws, a missing spindle and tray top hardware.  It was an enjoyable project and the customers were pleased with the results.  The baby was born during the restoration and the chair awaits his growth to the right size!
