[@JuanFernandez-mb6dl]

THANK YOU! I'm going to try this way...I feel more confident tackling this DIY job

[@TeeJetNozzle]

Have the same problem in the chair to broken Springs I’ll go down to the upholstery shop and pick up some springs and put it back together thanks for the great video from Phoenix Arizona

[@dshybella]

Thank u so much. U don’t even know how many videos I watched with ppl repairing back cushions by repair I mean stuffing lol.

[@doh1959]

this is obviously usefull because of views .i would just like to share a very cheap quick repair i have done to two broken zig zag springs hope this helps someone.i bought a packet of 50 of the heavier duty electrical wire zip ties and simply joined the springs back up .just put tie around each spring pull together theres enough room to put about 4 or five on each spring then put another zip tie around the zip ties to hold them together then put a zip tie around the bunch connecting to adjacent spring to stop the whole lot sliding off just criss cross a couple to adjacent springs until its obvious that they cant just all fall off.sorry no video but repair cost me 3 pounds job done.

[@doh1959]

just incase peeps you might know zip ties better as cable ties

[@NamelessGrace]

Thanks for the tip!

[@Tallinyc]

Gonna try this, thank you

[@trishr.3986]

That was my thought. Thank you for detailing it for me!

[@deanwhitehead1483]

trampoline springs are brilliant for joining broken sofa springs together

[@carmelized11candi]

How in gods name did you lift up the sofa and hold the camera? For that alone I give you a thumbs up 👍🏾 and the repair was simple enough that I think I can handle it myself.

[@cindyq52700]

I have the same problem hopefully I can fix mine I'll use your instructions!

[@christosvolikakis1523]

Thanks for making the video but just some pointers: if you’re doing a how to video, probably better if you hold the camera steady or at least long enough for people to see what you’re doing. This was the first time I felt nauseated trying to watch a how to video

[@1Alphaofallalphas]

2 thumbs up!!! Thanks for the clip! Saved a bunch of bank!

[@teresamiller7511]

Seriously the camera made me feel sick. You should have had someone hold it while you did the repairs! And thanks for showing us how you did the repairs 😑

[@1Alphaofallalphas]

Going vertigo. Hahahahaha

[@jeremymcclanahan2389]

Good Lord your camera work is making dizzy

[@tiffanyd.flowersfuturefocu369]

What type of nails you used and can you list all the supply and cost

[@LegionOfShrooms]

They’ll keep popping out ours does just going to JB weld it and hope it helps. But mine just slips out

[@carolinewells4355]

awesome thanks so much

[@trevosride]

Good intention but kind incomplete how you remove the s springs

[@walterkersting9922]

I was thinking of a union peice to join the broken springs.

[@coult45usmc]

dude, find someone to hold the camera for you.

[@kristinalozano7891]

Did the nails hold up

[@tessastone9420]

This video showed us exactly how to do nothing! I can't believe some people are actually liking the video. You didn't show anything!

[@cpersinger1308]

Excuse me while I go throw up from dizziness....

[@davidmauricio8886]

I would fix my springs but I believe the fire retardant has turned to something toxic so not worth fixing.

[@mdinunzio7610]

Oy vey the camera going all over the place was hard to watch

[@apace003]

you're too close. can't see what you are doing.

[@jzjakerz]

Jesus Christ man... stop moving the camera around

[@1Alphaofallalphas]

You will never be able to use a scope. Dope that scope for Kentucky windage. Peace

[@baljeetahluwalia2015]

THE VIDEO WAS WAY TOO FAST IN TERMS OF THE ACTUAL ACTIONS YOU WERE TAKING TO REPAIR IT. GOOD TRY THOUGH

[@debeyes]
