The other day I manage to pick up a two seat bistro set with a matching table for super-duper cheap. There was only one problem with it and that was that time had taken its toll on the seats themselves. The grill webbing that makes the base of the seat was rusty and falling off.

I sat and thought of ways I could replace the seat sections. And came up with the following items to ponder.

1)      The seat webbing could be replaced, but I would need a welder

2)      The seat webbing could be covered up and something could be bolted to the top by drilling holes in the metal and screwing it down.

3)      I could cut out the webbing and put wood UNDER the seat and make it look intentionally wooden, but I would have to clip and file every rusty edge that was exposed and it still might pinch or poke.

I finally decided on a fourth possibility and decided to work with a combination of options two and three.

I found wood at Habitat for Humanity and Home depot and cut several pieces to shape to be placed on top of the chair seat itself. This would eliminate any possibility of getting poked with rusty parts or pinched with the chair edge itself.

I then put braces on the bottom of the chair and bolted them into place. I speculated if wood screws holding it from the bottom would be enough, but sturdiness prevailed and I opted for bolts that would be visible from the top in an aesthetically pleasing way. It doesn’t look like a patch to cover up a chair that was falling apart. It looks like I wanted it to look this way. So I’m pretty happy about it.

Today my sisters and aunt moved all the furniture out of Tootsie’s house.  They rented a truck and loaded it up and dropped it off at all the homes.  They brought a bedroom set and the dining room table to me.  I was wanting Shelby to take the bedroom set for her room, but she does not want it.  That’s ok, I will save me from having to buy another in a few months. 

Did not work today.  Still not completely recovered from Tuesday, but I am going to give it a try tomorrow.

Steel tower

Among the most common and well known materials there is certainly the steel; this alloy of iron and carbon is in fact generally used in many fields and produced in many varieties. It has an annual production average of 1 billion tons of steel that is worked in many manufacturing processes such as casting, forging and molding. The famous stainless steel is used in bathroom furniture, taps and shelves while in cooking furniture is used in the work plan and other containment structures. Its strength and practicality makes it very practical and functional in furniture and objects of constant use, more vulnerable to stress and consumption. Today is becoming increasingly important in civil and industrial buildings and in monumental structures, all this because the steel is certainly guarantee of durability and high resistance to corrosion. That is why architects and engineers have a lot of consideration of this material and its use in buildings is increasing. Also the old beams and reinforced concrete pillars are being replaced by steel bolts and pillars in new metal structures.
