I so enjoyed watching this video. I also appreciate the notations of the product description you use. "A mile later"..."the right way, the wrong way...my way", I'm still laughing. Thank you!!
Upholstery done well is a true art form...this work is just beautiful. So neat and precise...I would love to work in a shop like this, I know I would enjoy doing this work. Wonderful relaxing video to watch. 👍
Another great tutorial. As always. Thank you for posting this one Bill. PS; I can't believe after all these years, Mrs. Clause is FINALLY redoing the breakfast nook! 🥴😉
Do you have a go-to source for ordering parts/accessories for your Consew machine? I have an old Consew 230 and I'm looking for a double welt foot. Also, what size welting do you normally use? Thank you for your great instructional videos...the added humor is a plus.🤣
This frame has a recessed tacking area. Depending on the recess, you could cut 1/4 plywood, upholster them and glue/short finishing nail the upholstered panels into the recess.
I have chairs like that with a cut out for the legs. Is it possible to upholster the seat pad and still get it to fit in the space. Do you have a video showing how to upholster the seat pad and still pop it back in the chair. Previously it was 'seagrass' but my cat has destroyed that and so I would like to reupholster with fabric but unsure how to work round the cut out areas.
How much fabric goes into one chair (seat and back)? I have a set of four "frames", albeit without the convienent recessed design on the back. There are screw holes from the top and bottom, not sure how that would work with your style of reupholstering. I learned a lot! Thanks!
I take it this was being done on the cheap, which might explain the lack of springs in the seat, the use of a plywood panel as a seat base and the way you covered up the detail on the top of the front legs. If those were my chairs you would not have a happy customer.
@BeatusLepus I said the details on the TOP of the legs, not the front face of the legs. Look at the "before & after" image and webbing would be more comfortable to sit on than plywood.
I have a couple times upon request. For awhile I used a commercial fabric guard. My biggest client only uses guarded fabrics now, so I don’t bother with it.
This upholstery wont last....if you staple it and cut it THAT close to the staples. You could have stapled that fabric AND folded it under and stapled it again under the seat... This is more of a quick fix/sell w/out actually thinking about longevity and quality of work done...patchwork job at best. Might as well just used superglue.

Your a real master of your craft. I enjoyed watching you work and I learned something. So thank you and God Bless you!

Great tutorial! Thank you for sharing! I’m going to have to catch your tutorial on how you did the double cording!!! Thanks 😊

Excellent video! You do great work and make it look so easy! Thank you.
Hold on. Hot gluing the end of the new glue stick to refill is GENIUS! Not to mention the other techniques I've learned from this video
Learned a lot from this! Thank you for making this video! 🙏
👍🏼Amazing work ... so labor intensive!
Amazing patience and skill!
Great video! Thanks for sharing
Perfecto trabajo!!!!!!
Awesome instruction.
Great video.
Great job! This was very helpful. Do you have a video on reupholstering iron back chairs?
No videos on iron backs yet
Feeling inspired 😊
How do you re-posted the back of a steel chair no wood to nail or staple to

No specific place. I just shop parts online
This looks great! Is there a way you can do the chair back without using piping to finish it off?

Thank you ♥️
Your video is so informative
Good job!
Ty for great video! Is there a specific glue brand/type you recommend or the one you use please if you may share? TIA!
I’m currently using es 2000 spray glue. Thanks Lily
Do you have a list of materials you use? What’s the green fabric on the back of the chair?
Designers supply the fabrics. I only do labor.
Nice job and good luck with your channel 👍
Thank you 🙂

It looks so nice. Does the hot glue hold well? I’m about to do reupholster my dining room chairs and worried the glue wouldn’t hold after a while.
Hot works great

Generally, two yards
@@MarksUpholstery Awesome, thanks so much! I've got all my supplies ordered, I'll link an imgur album when I'm done!
Hi how much you charge for one chair
Well that looks easy
WOW!
Super .. toll

Overkill for this project

Do you use scotchgard

I staple sufficiently above the cut line. I know what you’re referring to and I know how to avoid it.
Lol...a mile later!!!
So what you are saying is that I can't use this method if I can't sew and don't have a sewing machine. OK. Still, the video is nice.
I’m using double welt which needs to be sewn. Other options are nails or gimp.
Brilliant 👏 👏 👏
