I think we're on the same page

or in the same saddle?
we'll have to see if i have a "good eye" or not, but i have the arsenal of paints.
the chair is just one of a set and the biggy for the owner is just to get this one back in sittable service.
as to the C-clamps, all that paint pretty well covers the half-assed grinding of the seams left after casting and even slowing a steed to a walk, they're tough to see. then there is the fact that the screws on all of them don't quite center their swivels on their base-pads.
i didn't have any yellow glue so used white, and as the weather has turned cool & rainy today i plan on leaving the clamps on another full day. ah well; gotta just make do with what one has.
