Hey Y'all
Happy Market Friday
As always thanks much to the Queen of Markets, Hive's very own @dswigle for making it fun every week!
I ordered two barstools from Amazon Marketplace. For those unaware, they sell returned stuff there at a discount. Of course as usually happens if one wants two chairs, it is best to order four as there are generally problems in one box if not both.
I just knew this was going to be loads of fun!!!
Yeah right!
Um I don't know about you, but I doubt the stuff coming straight from China is going to use a branded Ziplock bag. I could be wrong, but my confidence was not high!
There's your problem!!!
Just part of the fun was some of the threads on some of the bolts were stripped flat.
Hate when that happens!
Which also means the nut parts embedding into the wood were also stripped.
Of course some of the stitching was a bit janky!
Now the most important step in these projects is to not go off half cocked. One must follow proper procedures and that is obviously to bin the instructions first thing!
Of course they say you must use a hand driven screwdriver...
Ha!
Aint no one got time for that!
Well at least it held me!

Well.. .there you go !
I always go by the instructions... .well... if they make them where you can understand them.
Looks nice ! Glad they turned out good.
Binning the instructions is a strictly male necessity lol. 🤣
I've heard that before!
The chair turned out well.
