On Second Thought

Now that I've stared at the pix below for a few minutes, I'm thinking I may just have to unscrew the bottom screws, lift the carcass off, and redo the base frame :-(

With the cushion, I'm afraid the seat will be as high as the desks, and that will look weird. It shouldn't be too hard to reassemble the frame, should it? Somebody tell me it'll be easy!!! At least it's not glued.

Ya think I'll ever finish this thing????????????
