 18 Mar 20 - Went to the thrift store a couple days ago to drop off some donations and saw this rocker.  So I asked what they wanted for it.  The arm was included so I brought it home to repair.  It is a very comfortable chair. 
 This is a stool from my first National Guard Unit in Sarasota from 1986.  It has seen better days, the seat was completely come apart.  All the glue joints were no longer holding.  So I took it apart and have glued it back together.  I have a new piece of leather coming to recover it and will probably white wash the legs.
 The rocker came apart nicely since the glue on it didn't hold either.
Only one slat on the back was still glued.  The head rest has a crack in it also, which is clamped and drying now.  More work today on it!
