I need to remount a leg on a wooden chair. The chair's legs are fixed to the chair with mounting plates which carry a threaded stub which screws into the leg. The problem is that the screwhole in one leg is worn out and the threaded stub no longer holds fast. The following photos show the component parts and the problem:
I'd appreciate suggestions on how best to repair it. Basically I'm looking for a way of re-threading the stub into the leg. I'm not sure if fixing the stub into the leg with strong adhesive is the way to go; I'd like to be able to unscrew the stub.
Thanks in advance for any help!
