    Have somewhat been following the redo on this sofa. You are a Master Craftsman at what you do. That sofa is a piece of art in itself. It is gorgeous and that fabric is so elegant with those muted colors and design. I have never seen upholstery fabric that thick. I have King Hickory Double Camelback sofa and love seat with sloped arms from the 1980"s. I refuse to get rid of it. Well made, sturdy, fits our sizes. Past time for a new upholstery job. Wish I could have you do it. Worth every penny to have it done correctly. Not sure I want to take it on, but just might try the Queen Anne chair that goes with it.

    Do people like this even exist anymore? My sofa is less than a year old and the cushion under the arm has worn away. The sofa still looks amazing, so I don't need to reupholster the entire thing. I've been watching videos to see if I could figure out how to fix it..and I found this. It's nice to see some custom work. I watched every minute of this video. I remember a time when men were craftsman. I'm sure there are still men who can make things like this..not any of the ones I know that I asked how to fix my sofa arm though. Nice work sir!

    I thank you so much for this post. It was very informative. I have two sofas and a chaise lounge that I'm planning to reupholster myself. Can you recommend what type of air compressor I should get and stapler? I have tiny hands and the stapler that I have really hurt my hands. Thank you.

    • @Buckminsterupholstery
      @Buckminsterupholstery  5 років тому

      I don't know enough about compressors to give recommendations. You see in my videos I have a 40 year old Duo-Fast stapler that I prefer using but staples have been sometimes hard to find. I resorted to using the BEA which has a larger staple than I prefer but they pull out much easier (without snapping in two) when adjustments are needed. Pneumatic staplers are a must, especially for your tiny hands. Thanks for tuning in.

    Hi there, can you tell me if you were to put arm panels on a chair covered with a finer weave (like a solid faux wool) would you still use finishing nails? Previously it was upholstered with panel nails… im having a hard time finding any (I’m in Canada) and a lot of places are out of stock

      I'm not sure what they're called. "Christmas tree fasteners" ? (no reflection of Xmas) Plastic caps with stems lined with thin "branches"/flaps that slide in but grab coming out. You'll need to drill holes in the frame. Used a great deal in automotive applications. Good luck. "Buck"

      The cutting tool is used in the heating and air conditioning trade for notching sheet metal in duct work. My son gave the tool to me when he changed his line of work. I have no idea where he purchased it but I would assume one can be found at stores that sell tools for the construction trades.

      What I was using here I bought from an automotive/marine supply company in Kansas City which went out of business a couple years ago. A new company (new location) opened and has the panels but getting them shipped is highly cost prohibitive. I have a friend that lived a few miles away and would pick up supplies like this for me. I don't know what I will do for future needs.

      The (very worn) brown gun is a Duo-fast I purchased over 35 years ago. It shoots the "old style" 3300 series staple. I don't know any of the specs. Last time I tried to get "O" rings from Duo-fast they told me the gun was obsolete. I'm guessing there were some new no-fire safety features that fell into play... This gun also works fine at a much higher PSI. It has served me well.
