Get some 'carpenters glue' and a bunch of thick elastic bands - like the post office uses,
then re-position and glue the pad back on the foot. You will have to bind the leg with
the elastic bands to hold the pad in place while the glue dries.

After 24 hours, remove the bands and with a slightly damp cloth,
remove any extra glue that may have 'oozed' out.............

As for the glass, I wouldn't worry about it. Just turn it into the wall, or position it
so it is not so noticeable - like next to a sofa arm.......... !

Oh.......

I thought the photo was of the bottom part of the leg, and that the pad
is what was broken off. The whole leg can be glued back on,
but it is a little more complicated........

Maybe you might know someone who can give you a hand ? ! ?

( It is worth more fixed if you are going to sell it anyway.......! )

They're great display cabinets and for the price you paid are worth fixing up. Regarding the broken leg, can you screw down through the base of the cabinet and into the top of the leg to fix it? Use wood glue as well and the repair should be invisible and firm.
Let us know how you get on. Your collection within is excellent too!

hi,i saved the other one by taking the other two legs off carefully and glueing the wood on the top frame as the frame that held the glass was comming apart,and well i took the legs off because it fit real nice on my dresser and if i ever go to sell,or just get more room them i will have them as they look like i could sqrew them in from the top like one of you guys said!well just wanted to show it as the other was a little crowded..!
