ABSTRACT:
A fixture engages each leg of a chair leg assembly to support each leg against longitudinal displacement along respective leg axes. A ram and associated drive member are mounted opposite each leg free end so that each ram axis is substantially aligned with one leg axis. A glide is adapted to fit loosely on the leg free end in a first position and to be driven tightly onto the leg in a second position. A pair of cam arms are coupled to the ram so that as the ram advances toward a leg that has a glide in the first position thereon, the cam arms and jaw members at the free ends of the cam arms, pivot toward the leg. The jaw members cooperate to align the leg axis with the ram axis while the glide is in the first position and to support the leg transversely to the leg axis as the ram advances to drive the glide into the second position.
