Well, after an extended bout of plague at our house, we finally managed to get the theater seats done.  We drilled holes at the marks and used a counter sink to make sure the bolts wouldn’t be touching the floor.  Unfortunately I didn’t get an action shot of this.  We then brought the wood back inside and I used carpet glue to… well, glue the carpet on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Once the carpet glue had set overnight, we flipped it over and cut of the corners of the rug, and glued the overlap down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Obviously we needed some weight to hold the overlap down, but fortunately we have a few books lying around.  Again, after a 24 hr cure, we removed the books and used a screwdriver to poke holes in the carpet for the bolts.  At this point we discovered that the bolts we had purchased were too short (we had neglected to take the depth of the carpet into account) so Josh made a run to ace to get longer bolts.  Fortunately they had them, so we stuck them through the plywood, put some felt pads over them (for extra no-scratch insurance) and turned the whole thing over.  Then we carefully picked up the chairs and lowered (forced) them onto their bolts.  Then everyone took turns tightening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

After the bolts were well tightened (I’m guessing we’ll have to go back with locktite at some point, but…), we moved the chairs into their new place of honor, just waiting for the next wrestling PPV or Packers game — a little bit of the Cosmo Theatre in our own home.<\/p>\n
