      • Position an L-bracket as if it will brace the leg to the frame of the chair.

      • Mark the exact outline of the bracket, taking extra care when marking the center hole where your screws will hold the brace in place.

      • It might be beneficial to "x" the through the marked circles to approximate the exact center for the screw to enter.

      • If possible, detach your chair legs.

      • In the case you cannot detach your chair legs, consider buying longer L-brackets so you still have enough room to hold your drill parallel to the chair surfaces.

      • Pre-drill holes through the center of your marked circles on both your chair legs and chair frame.

My neighbor called and said she had a table. She brought it outside but before I could make it across the street someone took the legs. Miraculously I found legs from another table the next day. Unfortunately the screw hole didn’t match. The table was wobbly. This is the almost perfect fix.
