Have a rocker that has a broken rocker. Trying to find out how or who could fix it. Any ideas? In Piedmont NC.
Better photo? Looks like it broke where the rung goes in. No real way for a repair that would handle the stress from rocking. I would use the good rocker as a template and cut one out of wood and replace the broken one.
We have a rocker with the same issue. I tried gluing it, that didn't work. Then I tried putting a little corrugated metal to hold the pieces together then gluing it again. Think I agree with the 1st suggestion and that is to remove the good rocker piece and use it to make a template to cut an entirely new one.
take the other rocker off and you have a chair.

Woodworker, cabinet maker or furniture builder will make a new one. Don't risk an accident with trying to repair the old one. They just don't have the needed strength to work.
I have a rocker that has a hole in the seat. I could re weave but not sure. Any other Ideas???
