Here's what I've done today. Still need to cut new wood, and add some foam. Then I just staple the new covers on.

Nice work man! No prior experience? clap.gif

none. Just ran into a deal on the machine and decide to give it a try.
Thats awesome man. Ive watched my best friend do upholstery now for 25 years.He's covered everything i own. He made my favorite old chair...my favorite new chair! He's covered every boat i've had-several Camaros and my Corvette.Its a tedious trade! You must be a natural-and have worked with your hands.Good job man! Practice is the key! clap.gif

Jasson, you can borrow it for sure once I get done. I only have 2 seat bottoms and 2 cocktail seat covers left to do. I'm skeered of the cocktail seats.  :smile20: they are complex!
