Personally I'd pull it apart to reglue it.  Take the hip-huggers off between the seat and back legs, pull the screws from the back legs to the seat.  Check whether there are any screws or nails from t...

Post: RE: What finish is on old oak church pews?

Post: RE: Cutting Brass
Get a metal cutting blade and slow the saw down or IMO risk damage.  Personally I'd use a hack saw or a disk grinder.
