How to make cuts around arm and seat bars in re-upholstery.

Описание: In this tutorial I show how to make the cuts around the bars on the arms and seat when re-upholstering this modern reproduction, button back chair. I have not removed the foam wadding on this chair, but the techniques can be used on other chairs, whether traditional or modern.

You can watch the full strip down and re-upholstery of the chair, including attaching a box pleated skirt in a 3 part video series. See links below.
