- In this video I'm almost done with the upholstery in the 67 Chevelle wagon I make up the patterns cut the leather to recover the front bucket seats and start to make the back bench look like the buckets.
Quality craftsmanship is disappearing. So it's especially gratifying to see someone with the skills and care like you. Love the attention to every detail. You're an artist, my friend.
Wow im amazed with the expertise and craftsmanship involved in making a set of seat covers. Ive paid for about 5 or 6 cars to be redone over the last 30 years. I had no idea. Those included vinyl tops headliners and carpets. I have a new found respect. Thanks for making these videos . Awesome!
Using a big stitch length makes joining the leather to the foam backing alot quicker as you are only needing to tack the two together after glueing.
You need a stitch in the ditchfoot that has the spring piece that keeps you in the ditch and you get perfect stitching . Available in different widths and such , they help immensely . Thus is one of the times you want a sewing machine that has needle possitioner installed so hou can set it when you stop the need is in down or up position but when doing you'd definitely want to have it stop with foot down . Very impressive work it looks great well done fella
Looks great!!!!
Pretty work, Looks stressful
Great video, you are awesome
Trying my first job like your work but would really like to know how you made your patterns out of paper if you could make a short video about them it would really help me out.
Nice work.
I cant even imagine being successful @ this without a walking foot machine (which I dont have) That Juki is the shit!!!!! along with your talent very impressive....
Can you do a video on how you make the patterns?
Been thinking about doing a custom reshape and trim job on the project's factory seats. Think I'll just grab some off-the-shelf bucket seats instead and save the custom trim thing for easier panels like dashboard and centre console...
Looks great....how many hides you use?
Curious why you create separate panels for seat back/bottom inserts rather than making one large panel and using pleats? Total legit question. I am by no means challenging you. I'm genuinely curious. I'm trying to get into doing my own seat covers as soon as I find a machine, so learning what I can from videos like this. Great job with your Chevelle, btw. Outstanding. We need to start getting you more views ;) Very underrated channel but I know it's rather new. If you haven't thought about using a mic yet, I would highly consider it. It will definitely improve the quality of your videos. Speaking from a seasoned YT viewer ;)
Looking very good. Which Juke machine are you using? I’m an old goat 73 just starting my journey learning automotive upholstery.
Это видео нужно показывать тем, кто кричит - почему так дорого за перетяжку!!
Do you ever replace the foam when you do seats?
Where do you purchase those good looking bucket seats when in stock?
What glue are you using in the can?
How long does this project take.good job.
