[@brionbee]

You are an incredible teacher! Thank you for 1) Your incredible observation of your own process, and 2) Your diligence in communicating that process! Such a rarity nowadays with tutorials. And your work is superbe!

[@Griddy66]

Hello Joan thanks you for an excellent step by step description/video enabling me to complete an antique armchair upholstery renewal. Yes good techer right speed & detail. I made my own webbing stretcher & could not have completed the job without it & your help. Many thanks Rob.

I noticed this video is from 2014! It is an excellent explanation of how this process is best done. So many good tips in this short video!

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Thank you very much for your comment. These have been produced some time ago like you said but they still prove useful :) If you need any further help please feel free to let us know LeeAnn - J A Milton

[@eelnoops5200]

All these instructions and tips are great, but I found the very last tip was super helpful - about attaching webbing when the frame is angled (or curved). Thank you!

EXCELLENT instructional video, you have given me the confidence to try out my new learned 'skills' on a bed base that needs webbing to give the slats more strength and take even straining. THANKYOU so much!

Just the information I needed to complete my project, imparted clearly. Thank you.

[@ryanwood6407]

Thanks for the video. Found it helpful! I nearly went ahead with the wrong nails so I'm glad I've ordered the right ones. Hopefully my attempt will look half as good as yours and it'll last.

[@jesshothersall]

Thank you very much, beautifully clear, and full of useful tips. Now feel able to replace the webbing on my dining chairs, that recently collapsed on all four, within just a couple of weeks

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your chairs :) Regards Lee-Ann

I loved the way you explain your process. Please continue posting the videos. You are marvelous.

[@SusieQuhNOT]

Wonderful! Thank you so much for posting this. I "thought" I knew how to do this and was just comparing stretcher types. BOY was I wrong!😟 Thanks again. 💖

[@stefanimoore271]

Thank you thank you! I have 3 chairs to reweb and upholster. I really didnt want to need an electric stapler or such but couldn't find anything to teach me how to do it all traditionally. I knew it was done but not how! Thanks to you and this video I feel much more confident tackling this job!

[@Rich32262]

I looked at a lot of videos and kept coming back to yours. I just made 4 dining chairs. The seat foam and material will be attached to plywood. I've cut the plywood so that it's open in the middle to stretch webbing across. I won't be using springs. Does it matter how wide the webbing is? In my case I can have 3 going one side to the other and 2 going front to back using the 3" webbing I have. And I will be making one of the stretching tools:)

[@davidwall6020]

Hi Good informative video. I have a dining chair which is webbed on the top of the seat frame, not underneath as you are showing. Is there a reason for this? Dave

[@pooractiveoriginal8048]

Thank you Joan,. Can you tell me the type of hammer used

[@gypsygirl731]

[@tbedgood]

Thank you for making this video, with some excellent tips! Can you please explain why you leave gaps between the webbing? Intuitively I would think that one would just fill up all the space with webbing.

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Thanks for your question. Leaving the gaps makes it that bit easier when it comes to sewing down your springs as they allow you to reach through with your needle. If you wish, you can apply the webbing and not leave any gaps but keep in mind the ease of sewing down your springs and also the frame. If the frame is already weak you could end up overloading it. Hope this helps.

[@tbedgood]

@@JAMiltonUpholstery Thanks for your prompt response! Ah, I didn't think about springs...I'm redoing a ding chair that doesn't have springs...Yes, I hope the frame is strong enough...we shall see.

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

[@beibeifan5802]

The video is very helpful

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Glad it was helpful! LeeAnn

[@hugglebear69]

I just love youtube for this kind of thing. I made myself a pallet couch, but the bloody thing is so damned uncomfortable. 1. The seat cushions are rubbish as the filling moves around inside, and I end up sitting almost directly on the wood. 2. There is no webbing. At least now I have an idea how to solve one of these problems. Unless I'm barking up the wrong tree and need to take a different approach completely. Any thoughts would be welcome.

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Thank you for your feedback. Glad that this will help hopefully fix your issue :)

How many years of experience have you got ?

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

Hi, Joan who is in this video started teaching back in 1988 and taught many students till she passed away in 2017.

[@maddy6192]

@@JAMiltonUpholstery So sorry to hear about your loss. Joan’s experience and teaching style is wonderful, and I’ve found this video immensely helpful. It’s great that her knowledge can continue to benefit people through these videos.

[@sumelle2]

Do you know how to put elastic webbing into a danish modern type chair that has dowels to secure the webbing? I can't figure out how to get the webbing in and tighten it on more than one dowel. I removed the old webbing but I just can't get it back in right.

[@JAMiltonUpholstery]

So Sorry but somehow I did not see this question. It may be too late for you but hopefully my answer might help someone else with the same problem. I know is a very difficult job because the rubber webbing grips so tight around the dowel that you can't adjust it. The way to loosen or tighten the webbing when it is held in place with the peg system is to make a simple tool with two lengths of wood about 8 inches (20cm) long x 1/2 inch (12mm) thick x 1.5" (4cm)wide (These measurements do not have to be exact and are very approximate). Hold the two pieces of wood together on the 4cm sides and drill two holes through both pieces of wood leaving about a 3" gap in the centre of the length. Place a bolt through each hole and secure both with a butterfly nut. To use the tool undo one bolt and swing the tool open then, with the webbing in place on the chair, grip it between the two pieces of wood by fastening the nuts tight. You should now be holding the webbing tight between the two pieces of wood. Hold the tool with two hands at either end/side like handles. This will give you a strong hold on the webbing in order to ease the grip on a dowel at one side of the frame. Now someone else can loosen or tighten the webbing by adjusting the position of the dowel. I know that sounds complicated but I am sure you will understand if you are doing this job.
