      she used tape and then used some type of seat belt looking material in the real thing, the key difference being that the tape was glued.
      i believe you could still glue the seat belt like material and roll the chair if done correctly. but thats just my 2 cents...

    Idea: leather strapping. When you roll it up, it looks unwieldy, like it wants to fall open again, plus you have to wrap your arms fully around it to carry it. I'm thinking that you could add a leather strap that would wrap around the roll to hold it together, and then another strap to serve as the handle. Then, when the chair is open for use, the strapping could double as means of holding it open, performing the role of the strings you used at the end. Leather on wood also looks incredible, so boost to aesthetics.

    Yeah, this is what I was thinking in Tamar's video - ideally you want some kind of metal - sheet or cable or such - holding the chair up. Fabric isn't strong enough and stretches too much. I don't know what that pallet strap was made from, but it looked like a strip of steel sheet. You're working with massive mechanical disadvantage, so you need exceptionally strong material.

      steel hinges with steel plates linking the hinges so the wood can't flex is the only thing I can think of, expensive and heavy. Webbing, leather, cloth, or even steel rope have too much stretch. The concept of this chair pushes material science to it's very limit

    Add a rope that is fixed to the foot/beginning of the chair, that can be hooked on a hook on the end/top of the chair, so that the chair is stable when rolled-out/set-up even without a person sitting on it. After rolling up the chair for transport you can use the same rope to wrap around the bundle a few times and then fix at the beginning on a secondary hook, so that the chair doesn't unroll while it is being transported.
    Lol I write this, unpause the video and you add it, okay I guess its obvious ;), but using it to secure for transport might be a nice double use of the rope...
