Thanks Guys 

Splendid    Can you come and work on ours (holiday in Switzerland  )

Sounds like a marvellous idea but I think my arm needs a rest before I do any more 

The brown stuff has finally vacated the workshop and I have found some castings hiding on the bench

one of the tenons broke and I had to learn how to repair a tenon (with success )

but first you have to learn how to cut a mortise to accommodate the new tenon - it look like a never-ending job...

I successfully cleaned out the existing mortise

Hello Jo

Well done for completing the full set of chairs. I bet you were grateful for the power assisted stapler.

Cheers

Thank you Mike

Actually I used the hand stapler as it provided greater control and had sufficient power to fire the staples fully into the wooden frame.
