It's such a pleasure watching this video. There's just so much respect with seeing upholstering done the old fashion way with so much attention to details. Hats off to you. Very inspiring.

[@patriciaingraldi4719]

What a wonderful tutorial video. I've seen so many but yours was the best. No music, no unnecessary chatter; only your artistic and skillful hands manipulating that fabric and your tools. Thank you. I wish I could apprentice with someone like you.

[@bettyunger8417]

I love how accurate and clean your work is. Love watching your peice come alive in the end. Lots of learning for a newbie.

[@earthelder2065]

[@johnpatterson7094]

[@jhgaskill]

Amazing workmanship!

[@dericktrx7573]

Very very nice!👍 helped me see how I needed to do the chair I’m working on. Thank you.

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

My pleasure.

[@1949chefjojo]

Thank you for your tutorial. I will use this video to upholster my chairs.

[@waterboy8999]

Thanks for the lesson, I love watching you work. I'm just getting started in this in a small way.

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

My pleasure. Thanks for tuning in.

I have always found upholstery to be a lost art that deep inside I really wanted to attempt but never had the courage. Due to our nations current situation I finally decided to jump in and try. My wife and I found a chair with good bones and we got started on it last week. The frame is from Arrow Parlor Frame Co. Chicago. And has been reupholstered at least once before. The reupholster job was terrible so I figured we couldn't make it worse, lol. I was trying to figure out how tight to stretch the webbing and how to attach and tie the springs. Then I found your videos. You are very informative and your videos are truly helpful. I hope we pull through this thing quickly! Best wishes from Arizona.

[@sylvia1108]

Gee THANK you for doing another video of your skillful work! I enjoy the videos. As a new upholstery student I always learn something new!

[@mercedeslluberes50]

Awesome job you’re great doing what you love ❤️ 💕 💗 to do most, thanks for giving a second life to that beautiful arms chair

[@barboraferencova4780]

Beautiful as always! You can never disappoint! Thank you :-))))

[@edwardchapman1914]

I really appreciate your videos.. I have been doing wood workings, wood turning, and antique restorations for 40yrs. Of course now at the age of 67 been trying to add upholstery to my arsenal for the last few years. I absolutely love the tedious efforts of stiching down wood wool and horse hair, and have treated your site more as an encyclopedia than entertainment. I do a bunch of turning and carvings for various upholstery shops, it's how I started down this road, but none of them do traditional upholstery so your videos are invaluable.. hope you stay with them..

[@ossamamihfad4442]

I m very pleased with the way you are explaining all the very small details Thank you !!!

[@nancyingram966]

Beautiful! You are a true master.

[@denisedennard9183]

Thank you, I enjoy watching your work. I wish you lived near me I would love to have you upholster a 3 piece Victorian set I have. Frist time seeing your work but I think you do great work.

[@normabadillo3235]

Hermoso trabajo muchas felicidades

[@xrysoulaplataniti1571]

You are an artist!

[@tallakff7349]

Thank you. My only comment is that I wish your videos were longer and went into more detail.

[@eliselamp3762]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge!! Grts from the Netherlands

[@philippawarner294]

Great to watch, thank you. You look like you might like Band of Horses :) my favourite. Please could you tell me the name of the cutters that take the notches out of the cardcoard strips? also what make of shears do you recommend please?

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

The notch tool is actually for cutting notches in sheet metal in the heating and air conditioning trade. Wiss shears are preferred. (not familiar with Band of Horses)

[@philippawarner294]

@@Buckminsterupholstery Thank you thats very helpful.

[@carlotrinchella3814]

Che tipo , oltre ad essere un artista .... la cosa bella che lavora da solo senza nessuno che gli rompe le palle, quasi come se fosse un passatempo😀😀

[@rockysmith9250]

Fantastic, I mean just plain fantastic!! Amazing, I mean just plain amazing!! ✝️🇺🇸🔯🇮🇱

[@williamoverton7265]

You are so smooth👍🙏🙏🙏

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

What kind of cardboard do you use for templates? Is it a commercial only product? Thanks. Oh, yeah, another outstanding video. :-)

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

The cardboard is called "pattern paper" which I buy from my automotive upholstery supply company. Thanks for watching.

[@Cradley684]

One excellent job, have a nice day !!!.

[@lisarichmond5438]

You are so amazing, I spend hours watching you work . What kind of clasp are you using for your tufting and where can I find them?

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

I assume by "clasp" you're referring to the "prong mold" buttons. Most upholstery suppliers sell these. Thanks for tuning in.

[@basmebel9583]

Bravo Maestro 👍👍👍.

[@ceknott]

Great again

[@curtainsup9]

what is this interesting webbing fabric? I had an uph. shop 25 years ago and still do some small jobs...am not familiar with this product. I noticed in the first video of this chair how you didn't have an edge roll on chair frame but rolled the layers of cotton in...that was interesting to me...also noticing no foam or dacron batting being used and no metal curve to attach outside back...Love the results.

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

The jute material is known as "No-sag" webbing (I think). It may go by a different name from different distributors. Thanks for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed this feature.

[@moblirankar8401]

👍👍so great

[@PeanutsDadForever]

More great work 🇦🇺👴🏻

[@williamoverton7265]

Wonderful

[@williamoverton7265]

Is the deck padding dacron? Does it have a film skin?

[@PrimarchEldarAutarch]

Is duck padding the same thing as duck fabric? (yeah, looked on internet, but couldn't figure it out)

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

"Deck padding" as in cushion deck.

[@PrimarchEldarAutarch]

@@Buckminsterupholstery Thank you for the correction.

[@adamsoli1123]

Sei un grande ! 🙂👍

[@sylverbullet1]

Do you have to sew leather when tufting? As you have in this chair?

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

No. I prefer not sewing leather.

[@hassanouldmadani1057]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@nigelheffernan3857]

What thickness cotton do you use please

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

I don't know. I'm not aware of any options for thickness. This was standard off the roll.

[@carmineriganti2333]

Great videos learn some tricks. Have ever cover a truck dashboard ?

[@Buckminsterupholstery]

Very few dashboards in my past. Most are too curvy. I had fairly good luck with a '72 Mustang cover-lay dash.

[@carmineriganti2333]

@Mike D thanks will do
