Years ago, I had made a table for in the conservatory. If I sow vegetables, I always keep them on there until they are big enough to go into the garden. But I had eyeballed it a bit. It wasn't very straight! And if I sit in the comfortable chair in the conservatory (which is also the cat’s favourite chair on warmish days) I look straight at the front left leg which is at an unfortunate angle. And I am barely and OCD case (I hope this is not using the condition’s name in vain), but this is pushing it even for me. But now I have finally done something about that!
My activities with firewood resulted in plenty of wood splinters. And one day I brought a few of them in. I just unscrewed the leg, put the wood splinter into the screw hole, and then put the screw back above the splinter. And it worked! An actual joiner would still groan at the quality of the work, but if you're not paying attention you won’t notice it's not a straight angle anymore. I will be more comfortable in that chair from now on!
