when things are designed by artists, ratherthan engineers, durability is often neglected for the sake of looks.exactly like this sofa leg which is under constant strain, which will eventuallybreak it. remove the leg completely to see that designers neither knowanything about material strength: the leg is hollow, lacks any stiffening ribsand is made of some soft alloy, instead of proper steel. well, now you know what to keep in mind while ordering a new sofa. but we have tosit on something waiting for the new furniture to arrive. get a brick of wood.
put the broken sofa legagainst it and mark the height. now draw a line around the brick. while cutting, make sure the saw passesall the marked lines, to make the surface flat. you may paint the resulting cut-off brick, or cover it in color tape tomatch the sofa. so we got a piece of wood of approximatelythe same height as the original leg. put it under the sofa corner. don't remove the remains of the metal leg - let them stick into the wood and fixthe brick in place.
our new leg has a much wider footprint, whichlessens the pressure on the flooring, meaning it will last longer.
