I broke the leg on my wife's table and am having a hard time finding someone to repair it, in the ashburn, va area. I am wondering if anyone out there know someone that can fix it or do you thing it really can't be repaired? Thanks in advance for your assistance in the matter.

Re: small table repair in ashburn area
Photos are blurry, that doesn't look like real wood at the break, some form of particle board? If it is real wood, you can glue it back together with a wood glue (has to be clamped tight for 24 hours) then screw a flat metal reinforcement metal strap across the break area.
No repair is going to hold very well at that point anyways, it's on a pivot stress point. The correct thing to do is make a new leg which would be easy with a bandsaw. However that is not a high-end table and most certainly not worth paying a professional to do it.
