Incredible as always. Watching you do that makes me wonder why we ever switched to something that only lasts a couple years. And then I try to do it and suddenly realize why! Thanks for taking the time to do the videos, hopefully they help your clients to appreciate what you do.

Здравствуйте! Я посмотрела несколько ваших видео. Большое спасибо за то, что вы так подробно рассказываете и показываете. Это очень ценно для меня! Ваши видео как учебное пособие, передача опыта от профессионала начинающему мастеру или тому, кто хочет попробовать отреставрировать бабушкину старинную мебель. Я купила очень старое кресло, но его уже кто-то ремонтировал много раз раньше и убрал сено морских водорослей и конные волосы, остались только пружины, поролон и ватин. Сейчас я ищу магазин, где можно купить всё это и буду реставрировать по вашим урокам. Надеюсь, что у меня всё получиться. Еще раз спасибо за видео! Hello! I have watched several of your videos. Thank you so much for being so detailed and showing. This is very valuable to me! Your videos are like a tutorial, a transfer of experience from a professional to a novice craftsman or someone who wants to try restoring grandmother's antique furniture. I bought a very old chair, but someone had already repaired it many times before and removed the seaweed hay and horse hair, leaving only springs, foam rubber and batting. Now I am looking for a store where I can buy all this and I will restore it according to your lessons. I hope everything works out for me. Thanks again for the video!

I just bought these 2 very old & amazing chairs, but the upholstery is a mess & needs a great deal of work. Thank you for sharing. I very much enjoyed the video. U're quite talented! May I ask abt how much to expect to pay to have a chair like this repaired? I have no idea & would like to have some idea so I won't be overcharged.

I really can't say what to expect to pay. This is a chair of my own and I didn't keep track of the hours spent. In your case it depends on the techniques somebody uses and the varying rates of charge you will run into with other shops. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for tuning in.

love your videos and the EastLake furniture. However I have a question; when you have a chair that has been upholstered multiple times and the previous upholster didn't take out any of the tacks and after taking out the nails and tacks your left with lots of holes, how do you proved forwards to upholster it. Thank you and keep the videos coming.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Staples work better in grasping tack-riddled wood. Using tacks repeatedly is bad...

Buckminster Upholstery I’ve stripped the pice down to the wood and taken out all the tacks I can but the wood looks like swis cheese, do I need to fill the holes with anything before I start putting in the springs ? Thank you

I've never had any luck with wood fillers. They are brittle and break away with little effect on the repair. If the rails are full of holes along with splits, saturate the wood with liquid hide glue and try clamping the cracks shut.

thank you so much for all of your videos. i don't think you could know how much you have helped me and i'm sure others learn proper upholstery methods. may i ask if you think spanish moss will substitute horse hair? i can easily find excelsior but i'm not happy with the sourcing for the horse hair i've found so far. also - why would cotton batting not be appropriate as a top layer. many sincere thanks in advance!!!
@Buckminsterupholstery
@Buckminsterupholstery 4 жыл бұрын
Spanish moss works fine in place of horse hair but it's not quite as resilient or of equal quality. Moss is impossible to find these days processed for upholstery. Cotton is very appropriate.

The cost is far more than it's monetary worth. Sentimental or historic value makes it worthwhile.

Depends on the size of the chairs. You might get by with 5lbs but as cheap as it is you're as well off to buy ten.

You'll see when I apply the cover cloth the padding is pulled away from the tack rails so that the gimp lays flat. It also firms up the outer profile keeping the edges in more uniform shape.
