    Truly beautiful.
    Thank you for your work saving these fantastic older pieces and fighting back against "disposable" culture!

    No, thank you. I have spent 5 hours going through reupholstering videos and finally found yours. So much clearer in instruction and the why's and description than any I have seen thus far. I am saving this to watch over and over so I can eventually try y hand at it. We have ONE re-upholsterer in my area and he is really getting up there in age....think late 80's. I just bought a very well used soft leather sofa I want to try it on. the bones are good and the graduating young man said it was very comfortable, but it was in a student housing rental, so the material leaves much to be desired. Kudos to your camera person too. Excellent tutorial.

    Thank you for sharing. I was so impressed with your videos and I watched them all. That I reupholster for the first time my couch and love seat along with my dining room chairs using your techniques. My family and friends were very impressed.

    I’ve been out the upholstery business now for about 15 years but since I’ve been watching your RUclips channel an other upholstery channels I’ve decided to take it up again I still have all my tools plus I was given a compressor a few weeks ago so I’m ready to go so thanks dan Darren

    That’s super job, especially the headboards you have good choice for the fabrics as well. The sofas and others all very knitted and detailed. Well done and thanks for your explanation. I can say you’re gifted.

    Mesmerizing to watch, beautiful work. I missed seeing how you finished the front of the roll arms. I'm going to reupholster a roll arm bench and am considering whether to go with piping or tacks. Fascinating to see all the tools and items you use to create perfect pieces. Thanks so much!

    I would have liked to see how you made the cushion. Would it be difficult to replace a loose seat cushion with a fixed cushion instead? My father was a master upholsterer in New Orleans and you both have different techniques with very nice outcomes. Great work👍🏼👍🏼

  • @carlondawson9675
    @carlondawson9675 6 лет назад +1

    This is very instructive as usual, however one of the reasons I watched was to see how you made the panels on the front arms which you skipped entirely. Perhaps that is something you can consider do a video on. Thanks.

    • @ellisgarrett1847
      @ellisgarrett1847 6 лет назад

      Like you, I was really excited to see how the arm panels were done. Show us your tricks for this, please!

    • @nichr165
      @nichr165 6 лет назад

      I work as an upholster, here in Denmark.
      The panel in the front, is a thin piece of plywood, usual with a 5 mm foam, and sometimes a thin fiber.
      If you are using a woven fabric, where you gently can work a headless nail through, which in most cases you can, it is easyer to wait with the nails until you put it on. Otherwise you have to use a nail with a big flat head, and put it all the way through the banel, before you put fabric on, and the GENTLY apply it to the front.
      Old chairs and sofas, can have a peace of wood, with some pegs that you fit in some holes in the chairs arm. Don't use glue friktion only.

    Hi you are a Master. I have a sofa similar to this, the only thing is I only have one board running around the sofa. I don't know where to attach the decking and arms to? It's a Flexsteel sofa. All the foam etc; does not need to be renewed. The only thing I need to do is replace the cardboard on the outside arms.
