This is invaluable and very thorough. Thank you for taking the time to create and upload this video for everyone to learn! Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹
inherited some birds-eye maple chairs with hand-woven seats, 3 of them need replacing. Thank you so much for the inspiration to try it myself. My summer is now booked!
I really enjoyed watching your video. 50 years ago I wove the bench seat which was square and not round. I'm thinking that I might build a bench like the one I worked on and weave the seat. Thank you for your great presentation.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment! Your kind words are truly appreciated. Go for it! There's nothing like becoming a part of a chair's story...and you can be there right from the beginning. Wish you the best!
Excellent video! There is as you say a lot to this than can be covered in 1 hour but it was enough to get me through my first round chair seat! Very gratifying!
GREAT Video, Brandy & Dave are EXCELLANT instructors, I have taken several classes from them and will be back for more in the future. I'm in my 70's, if I can learn & do this you can too!!! Become a CHAIR NERD, you'll love it!!
Thank you for the great explanation! The bottom of the corner holes on my chair are blocked by the chair legs - have you got any advice for how to deal with this?
You’re amazing!! I just acquired a bentwood rocking chair with a broken seat and am contemplating what to do. The press in pre-woven rattan just don’t feel quite right and they also do not seem as simple as they appear.
Thank you for the kind words! We take great pride in our work and aim to empower others to weave their own beautiful chairs. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
You are most welcome. Typically round chairs like this one are either super fine or fine. I'm pretty sure this was fine cane 2.5 mm. We measure each chair, never going by what the last person used....and we aren't afraid to remove work if it's looking too flimsy or too crowded. We typically go up or down a size for diagonals if we aren't happy with the spacing (too flimsy/crowded), so long as your base Steps 1-4 are the same size. In fact, early European caning was often done with tiny base Steps 1-4 and 3-4 sizes up for diagonals.
The pegs anchor tails temporarily until you have enough loops to tie the tails off underneath. Caning pegs and/or golf tees are 100% necessary to the process. Thanks for watching!
Gladly, when there is time! These videos take a long time to make! You can check with some chair caning suppliers (Link on the resources page of www.SilverRiverChairs.com) for these little pamphlets "Ideas for the Experienced Chair Caner" which give pretty good instructions. Old school publication with black & white photos but does the trick until we get you your patterns video!

Yay! I hope your projects behave. If you find yourself in a bind, we do offer personalized tutorials via zoom. Glad you are finding the video helpful!
This video was exactly what I needed to help me weave my first round seat. You covered it all. Thank you so much!

Thanks Mark! Wish you the best and we appreciate the shout out.
You are good. I was glad watching this that it was you and not myself.
Aww...it's not that bad, but if it was easy everyone would be weaving chairs! Thank you for watching and we're glad you enjoyed our video.

Thank you for this video! I'll probably watch it again and again after doing more chairs I did (I did 4 now). How many mm is the cane you use?

@@silverriverchairs3686 Thank you! Good to have as knowledge.
Спасибо! Отлично!
Awsome 👌👌👌❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
🙌🙏🤟YAY!!
Please can you tell me how you anchored the first tail of the cane each time please?
The pegs anchor tails temporarily until you have enough loops to tie the tails off underneath. Caning pegs and/or golf tees are 100% necessary to the process. Thanks for watching!
Other patterns please thanks
