Osborne Staple Remover: amzn.to/3D9gQnR
Wooden Handle Staple Remover (also recommended): amzn.to/3ya4MiD

In this video, we demonstrate the quickest way we have found to remove stapled on fabric on a dining chair seat. This method can be used in a variety of situations, but is not recommend when working next to show wood unless the wood is protected. Both tools are useful in removing upholstery and although the electric tool is much faster for this scenario, the manual tool is still recommended for certain situations. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments and would like to see anything else, thanks!

My man, I wish we lived close by. I would buy you a beer. You just saved me 10 hours of work.
Haha! Glad to hear it
I recommend when you get to the sub layer cover, only take 3 sides off and pull it back unless you are replacing the cover, that way it makes it easier to install and in the exact location.
Thanks
Omg, thank you! I’ve been flipping furniture and have already reupholstered 8 chairs, but it’s so tedious I decided not to do it ever again. I was gifted an oak dining table with 6 chairs that desperately needed to be reupholstered, but I really wanted to find a faster way to remove the staples. I’m definitely going to invest in that tool!
It’s SOO worth it. Thanks for watching!!
I was looking for a way to remove "hundreds" of staples from a kids upholstered rocker, without causing tennis elbow. I developed tennis elbow from a staple removal on some furniture pieces I was doing. I had to go to PT about six months after because it would not heal. Thank you for this recommendation as I have an oscillating tool and a blade that works on metal. Not dreading this process now.
Glad it helped! Good luck!!
Great presentation mate.
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words
Hey bro, I've only seen the chisel style needed when doing nail tacks on antiques.
I will try for my annoying projects of other upholstery shops.
Sounds good! I have found it to be very helpful
Thanks for the demo. Bought blades. Hope to reduce the time spent doing away with the staples used to attach fabric to MCM chair backs as well as the seats. Safety glasses or goggles? Is one left with staple leg fragments that should be hammered into the wood?
Safety glasses definitely help and it definitely doesn’t hurt to hammer over the top of the old staples at the end of the
Really good video. Wanting to get rid of my staples fast. But I'm no sure when is it a good time to use the manual vs. the oscillator? Are there specific pieces you only use it on? Can you list them?
I will not use it around “show wood”. I use it on dining seats primarily. I also use it primarily Wingback chairs and accent chairs. i have it handy and use it just about everywhere where it makes sense and is safe. If there’s potential to slip and hit the decorative finish wood surface, I would shy away from it.
yes it will cut them faster,but doesnt it leave sharp edges that might stick through the new fabrick?you know how people will grab the bottom of the chair sometimes to pull the chair in with them?and also couldnt it mes up a little, with putting the new staples in?it would hit some of the old staple feet in the wood still?
I’ve never had an issue with either of those. After my first pass, I go over the top just to make sure I got them all and even use my hammer to make sure. I never experienced any issues with hitting the old staples either
Oscillating tool demonstration starts at 10:33 .
Thx
Are there any downsides with the oscillating saw to leaving the staple teeth in the wood base? Faster, yes, but are there downsides?
Not that I’ve encountered. I’ve never had an issue with staples backfiring.
Hi does this take the whole of the staple out? Or just cut and leave some staple remaining?
Thanks
Sometimes it pops all of it out, but it usually just trims it flush
How do you remove the staples that have broken off in wood but are sticking up? There’s not enough staple to grasp or pull out. Just cut them off with that oscillating tool? Thank you for this video! I have been so frustrated with getting all the staple out to reupholster chairs.
Pliers if there’s enough, otherwise, trim them with the tool or hammer them down
@@the323vlog4 thank you so much for your quick response!
Blessings to you and yours.
@@JKABCreations my pleasure. You too
I did this. So good.
What blade do you find most effective/long lasting?
I ended up just finding a cheap 50 pack online . They don’t last forever, but they’re much more affordable than the 3 pack for $20 at lowes
@@the323vlog4 could you please post that link? for the cheap 50 pack? thanks!!

What about using this on a chair that has a wood frame? Like a French chair? I just removed staples and it almost killed me! They were so long and buried deep in the wood.
It’s doable but I’m very cautious if working around “show/decorative” wood.
any particular speed setting you like?
No sir. I just run it full throttle
Hello, great video. What is the brand? Where did you buy yours?
I have a link in my video description that includes those items, thanks!
Thank you
@@j.d.walker9331 my pleasure
Do you use this on other furniture too?
Yes, as long as the fabric isn’t right up against show wood, I’m not opposed to using it
If you do that 4 times will it still hold staples?
Not sure. Never had to reupholster one four times. I suppose if it didn’t, I’d spend $5 and 5 minutes to make a new seat frame
wow.... 90% of the work is to remove the staples. This not only saved me time but bandaids from the cuts I would get 🤣
It’s a lifesaver
It doesn’t work for the second way that you are doing. It’s taking forever
What kind of blade are you using? Is it a bi metal blade that cuts through metal? Also, is your seat stapled in? Some of the older antiques used nails that are thicker and harder to remove. I use a porting motion on the nails if that’s the case I don’t try to cut through them
Consider editing out time consuming repetitive tasks.
Typically I do time lapses on most of my videos, but I wanted to show this task in real time so people could see the time difference. Thanks for the feedback
