Let's see a video on the upholstery of the chair. Always good to watch you doing what you do best.

[@mistergalvolunteer4599]

Great video, easy to understand the way it is filmed, lots of information and no fluff. Just ordered some replacement springs to refurbish and old couch. Thank you!

[@chrishayden7016]

I didn't realize how poorly made our platform rocker was made. Instead of clips, the springs are stapled on. Amazed they held this long. Anyway, one spring broke and in measuring them I discovered the springs are 12 gauge. Going to get the 'standard' 8 gauge WITH clips. Very informative video, Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for your helpful video, me and my better half just repaired our sofa with the help of this vid, saving us time and dinero!

[@stephenfoster356]

[@victorbetancourt9224]

Good afternoon Emme god bless you god blessed your day & your family thanks so much for your help god bless you

[@uppersouthriver]

Hi Aimee, thanks for the t-shirt. Everyone in the shop got a chuckle over it. I started late, then twenty some years in the upholstery biz but I am reminded of or learn some things from you, thanks.

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

That’s awesome, thanks for wearing it

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

Which shop are you at?

[@uppersouthriver]

Johnson's Upholstery.

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

Cool! You guys do great work. I hear you’re very busy too

[@uppersouthriver]

Yes, now, covid, cerb, pent up demand has made for adjustments.

[@rexjerome5931]

Howdy Ms. Amie. I’d love to see how you upholster that. I have a very similar chair only it’s rocker but with the exact same springs. I’m getting ready to recover the cushions but it would look better to properly upholstered it or at least properly cover the springs. This chair currently has a pad over the springs and then just a simple cushion on top of it, therefore it looks sorta “unfinished”. Thanks for the vids!

[@lpdisco865]

Great video! Thanks so much! Have ever replaced No-Sag spring in a midcentury sofa or chair that does not use clips? I'm tackling a a teak framed Benchmark sofa with no-sag spring ends that are bent to 90-degrees and inserted directly in the wood (like a peg). Ever see anything like that? I'm reluctant to add clips to a piece that wasn't intended to have them. Thanks so much for this and all your other great videos--very useful + concise/detailed delivery!

[@uvaslyonnaise]

thank you for making these videos, I just watched like 10 other videos that were no help at all. I just wanted to know how long my springs should be lol

[@jeannen.2222]

Enjoyed watching. Do you have any videos on how to replace jute webbing?

[@steven6068]

Hi Amiee, Great video!! What size nails are you using to attach the clips with #14? Also, you should be wearing eye protection any time you are working around the springs. One slip, if a nail comes loose or snaps... Keep up the great work 😷.

[@Allegedly2right]

My sofa springs gave out on the bit that holds them it was made of plastic instead of steel,anyone can fix it when it’s on a bench try fixing it in situ.nice video 10/10 can you do one working from the bottom please

[@janicedeans977]

What tool is used to replace/install daybed frame springs that attaches the supporting metal mesh/grid to the metal frame?

[@roseconnolly3567]

Hi Aimee, Can a no sag spring system be upgraded to an 8-way hand-tied coil spring system? What are the pros and cons?

[@patriciajarvis8977]

Can you repair a one cushion chair, the seat Dips in like a moderate Sag

[@fredsacco9109]

How do you know when the zig zag springs should be replaced? I’m working on a chair now, they seem saggy but maybe I can add new little springs or re-tie them ???

[@user-ec3pg1sb5v]

Hi Amy where can I get a spring crumpet like yours? Thanks for your videos-they’re great 😎

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

You can get it here: amzn.to/2PD8K2Q

[@jeremychorney8921]

honestly............. we all like to see sparks fly. :)

[@dawnstrain5352]

I am replacing springs, but the chair back bottom cross bar is in the way for proper nailing the clip. Can I attach the clip to the outside back part of the chair? Or, what would you suggest?

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

There are different clips for that. They are longer and have a bend in them so that they can be nailed on the back of the chair but still sit flush to the frame. The spring clips should always be flush to the front of the frame when installing them.

[@dawnstrain5352]

@@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio Thank you so much Aimee!!! I love watching your videos. They have helped with my home projects. In fact, your newest one about round legs made me laugh because my current project has round legs. Do you have a specific clip you can recommend on Amazon? Thank you again.

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

amzn.to/390AkON these might work for you, not what I was talking about but close!

[@johnkocolowski6839]

Very informative video. Well executed. Do you ever just replace all the springs since they are possibly fatigued. Or is that overkill. Do you ever put two springs in where there is one for fat people?

[@ArtisanUpholsteryStudio]

I think those are both good ideas. Springs do get fatigued and sometimes rusty if they’ve been stored somewhere moist.

[@cherastern952]

The sound is so low I can barely hear her words. My volume to tuned to max!
