Recently, Greg in Travels of a Rambling Van, told how they get every penny's worth out of their stuff. I had to tell how much worth i get from fewer pennies and lauded my $4.00 chair that needed $0.53 in repairs.
A kind woman in an Oregon thrift store saw it was broken and i saw it was easily fixable. A win-win.
Here it is on the back veranda. Look closely at the front starboard leg and you'll see the machine screw, washer & nylok nut.
Here also is a Pietro Costantini chair rescued some 35 years ago from a street in the student ghetto. Worth approximately $1,500.00, i recently paid $150.00 to have it refurbished.
