footrest wont return to park postition on recliner

Hi

I just had a problem with my recliner the footrest would not retract and the lever handle was pushed way down to the floor. I am wondering if its an issue with the mechanism being bent
?
And how do i get the lever arm to return to normal position?

Thanks

Many configurations. Check for a set screw on the bottom of the adjusting lever. It may have simply loosened up

Giant Jenga Game - Finishing Question

So I am building a giant jenga game, and I have all of the pieces already cut and sanded. I am ready to finish them. My plan is to put Miniwax Polyshade on the wood first. After that I will have to get some finishing wax. Does this sound like it will work, I don't want to spend hours on it and then come to find out it doesn't work. Any suggestions?Read More
