/diy/ - Do It Yourself

It's fucked, isn't it?

So I started using this old wooden dining room chair as a desk chair and after a week it snapped. Fortunately, I had a cushion under my butt. I didn't get hurt when it split, but I think the chair is irredeemably ruined now. I only weigh 175pounds.

probably just going to have to break it into bits and toss it in the trash, but do you think this can be repaired to an extent where somebody could sit on it and trust it won't snap again?
