Seat on

The leg section was turned up the right way and stood on two blocks at either end. There are socket headed 10mm bolts passed up through the legs and similar 8mm bolts that pass up through the apron at the back. You can see the hole in the stub tenon in the foreground here and the coresponding hole in the seat section to the right. There are brass threaded inserts in the top section to accept the bolts. All of the holes and recesses are oversized to allow for movement in the wood.
