A close-up picture of the break shows the location of the dowels.
Top dowel was to join the two pieces of wood to form the leg and back
rail. The bottom dowel was from the addition of the hip brace.

 |
After cleaning out the old glue from around the dowels we applied
some epoxy glue and then clamped the areas to help the epoxy penetrate in
the wood and keep everything properly aligned.

The finished repair, all sanded and touched up with color to match
the surrounding area.
