Fascinating! Thank you. A real lost art.
You're not just an great upholsterer you're an upholstering engineer as well. 👍🏻
Your expertise and attention to detail serve as a reminder of the nobility of craftsmanship. Clearly, this can only be performed by someone who cares about quality. This attitude elevates work to the highest level of human achievement. It's a privilege to watch you work. Your videos restore my faith in people. Can you reupholster my 1930's German furniture?
Listening and watching you do your work, boggles my mind! The way you do the meticulous lay-out and measurements of this project is amazing! Thanks for posting! 😀😀 ✝️✡️
I was memorized by your precise craftsmanship. At one point I was actually brought to tears watching the high caliber precision of your work. It is so rare these days. I wonder where you were trained and how long you’ve been working at your craft. Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge. It’s a true honor. Your videographer is brilliant, too! I appreciate the satisfaction of watching/listening to your teaching without distracting music as so many videos include. Lucky the folks in your area to have access to your brilliance! Thank you!!!
Well, thank you... whoa... My mother introduced me to sewing and crafts at preschool age. I was born with artistry and craftsmanship at my core. I was greatly influenced by uncles who were craftsmen, one a professional in antique restoration. Three years in high school learning vast forms of industrial arts from a fantastic teacher directed me in woodworking, finishing, leather and other crafts. At 19, my mother guided me towards a college course in upholstery basics. After completing the course, I stumbled into a job doing upholstery in a western goods, saddle and tack store for a year. Beyond that, I have no formal training. I've been working my craft my entire life. Over 50 years experience in antique restoring. I do all of my camera work (unless seen hand-held). My son-in-law (Brandon) handles the editing and technical aspects of our channel. We agree, music can be very distracting and unnecessary. We like the sound of scissors snipping... Your heartfelt thoughts are greatly appreciated.
I love watching your videos. You remind me so much of my late brother in law. He did upholstery all his life. I watched that man do some very beautiful work as I was growing up in the early 70s. Everyone in the area always wanted him to do their furniture or vehicles. I see you take the same pride and care in what you do. You are truly a professional and do a professional job. I learn so much just watching you as well as put myself back into memory mode of my late brother in law. Love your videos please keep them coming. Their is nothing better for me than to watch a master tradesman do his craft and make things beautiful. God bless
And God bless you. A very sincere thanks for your kind words.
I too love to watch a master craftsman enjoy doing their craft! It's truly a delight to watch!
Great job
You're simply the best 😀🤗🤗🤗
I absolutely love your work,💯 It's good to see a Master working on a Masterpiece, Blessings🤗
You never disappoint. Thank you once again for sharing your amazing work with all of us.
Nice job sir👏🏻👏🏻......after 40 years as a self employed reupholsterer I spend my evenings watching other upholsterers on Y.T.....I guess I like OUR craft......
I hope you find our videos entertaining. Thanks for tuning in.
Such a pleasure as always. Loved that you fluffed up the old stuffing and re-used it. I think the original maker would have been pleased you kept its old heart.
I don't know why, but I love the sound of the shears cutting the fabric. Greatly appreciate your explaining the attention to details most people over look and or take for granted. Beautiful little rocking chair. Merry Christmas to you and your family!🎄
The high quality microphone is fantastic in picking up these sounds. In filming, I try to focus on snips and sliding cuts. Brandon takes great care in editing my various camera shots together with fluid timing. Perfect coordination with marrying my hand movements together. Thanks for your kind words. Our best wishes in return.
two videos in as many days? What a wonderful Christmas gift :) Thank you for sharing your expertise with us!
You are an artist! Thank you!
Your work is impeccable! I'm a long time fan and I still thoroughly love your videos!!
Fantastic, you teach something new continually.
I’m so glad I found your channel! I love the materials you use and the techniques and attention to detail are amazing! Thank you. After two videos, I’m hooked!
Brandon, Great Job editing!
Thank you! Mr. Buckminster always gives me great material to work with :)
Bravo!
Excellent work. It’s always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Merry Christmas!

Brilliant job, Have a great christmas and new year and Stay Safe !!!.
👍👍👍👍
Excellent video and craftsmanship sir. I'm wondering what gauge of piano wire you use? Cheers from Vermont!
The piano supply company shows the wire as size 29. It's approximately 1.9mm. Plenty strong and could be sized down slightly for chair seats, maybe 1.6mm. I originally purchased it for a Turkish couch deck. Thanks for tuning in.
Hey, another great video! Love your work. Why do you feather the cotton off instead of cutting it with scissors?
There are times cutting with shears would probably work. Shears can cause the cotton to pull down with a blunt line whereas feathering softens the edge or profile reflection.
@@Buckminsterupholstery good to know, thank you.
I just found your channel searching for some instruction on recovering a seat exactly like the one in this video. My problem is that more than half of the wire cross supports (like the one you created out of piano wire) are broken. Creating all new wire supports seems like more of a project than I can manage. I noticed on other projects that you tie the springs together with jute. Would tying cross supports with jute rope work on a seat with a wire edge like the one in this video?
Thank you for the great content. I've learned a lot. In fact, I may have learned that I've bitten off more than I can chew. We will see.
Contact me via my website for more information. No, tying with spring twine is not the solution. My pleasure to help.
👍👍👍👏👏👏
I wish you could make me a cushion like that I’d pay you and you can mail it to me. Beautiful beautiful work.
I've had many small projects like this sent to me. Contact me via my website if you take a notion.
I will go take pictures to share with you. Thanks
Always like to believe upholstering followed a certain set of rules. However, cutting welt on the bias, just isn't that way. It has its advantages. As with that plaid. I was taught never to do it! Match it in front. Let it fall wherever. As it goes around. Some cushion boxings certainly can be a challenge sometimes. Any mention of cutting welting on bias was met with disdain in our shop. I was told some customers would call you out on it. Saying it was incorrect. I'll admit, it's still a grey area for me.
So, let me open discussion by asking "what do you think is wrong with my cording?" Simple question. Because somebody told it's not right, and never do this? If you don't practice bias-cutting you are missing out on a lot of artistic opportunities, plus fabrics tailor much nicer on the bias. Quite frankly, I'm insulted by your input.
@@Buckminsterupholstery I said. Cutting welt on the bias has its advantages. As with that plaid. Plainly stated. I was admitting it turned out "BETTER" than the way tradition would have driven me to do it. I would have NEVER belittled your work Sir. NEVER! NEVER!
I don't understand.
Don't understand what?
Baumgardner would be very upset at those staples. Why not go back with nails?
I don't have a clue who Baumgardner is. I don't care what he thinks. His name isn't on my paycheck. Let me ask this. Why not use staples??? Go back 100 years and offer a person the choice between a staple gun or tack hammer. Easy choice.
toe fiber???!
Tow is hair-like fiber separated from flax straw.
