I have a solid QS white oak sideboard (c. 1910) with a cracked leg. I took the sideboard apart, laid it on its back, took out the caster and tried to clamp the thing closed. I could not get the split to close, but it would only go about halfway. If I had put any more pressure on it, I'd have broken it for sure.
I need some advice on fixing this properly. The piece is currently stripped of all finish. Later, I'll be using Danish Oil and BriWax to finish the piece... but in the meantime, I need to see what I can do about this leg. THANKS for any help!
