So Jen's had this futon couch for almost 15 years, and over the last few months (exacerbated, no doubt, by almost-a-teen angst-flopping) it has been getting pretty creaky. Today was the day to fix it:
|
Not good. |
The supports, they are missing.
|
"Wait. What?" We managed to move the cushion without moving the cat. |
|
Cushion moved to table, and cat content, off to the lumber yard I betook meself.
|
Rule is: Measure Twice, Cut Once |
Got the needed dimensional lumber, made some cuts....
|
A bit of analog cipherin' to figger spacing... |
Pondered some....
|
Some screws, and it's ready for cushion! |
Assembled some....
|
Ta Da! |
A usable couch, and the first part of building a Brand New Couch is done. For what ever time we decide we want a Brand New Couch.
