TH-cam suggested your channel to me. I'm truly glad. Nice work, and I like your sense of humor. Very interesting stuff. I have been watching videos on how to use a sewing machine. Every single one has been so full of jargon, I had no idea what they were talking about. I want, very badly, to know how to use a sewing machine and, perhaps, more importantly, how it works. I does me no good to know how to use something, if I don't know what it is supposed to be doing. In other words, how to deal with problems and make corrections and adjustments. Sorry for the rant. New sub here. Cheers!
Hello Jaf, Welcome aboard! Thank you for the sub. I always say it is not rocket science. My best advice I have for you is, that if you already have a sewing machine, just to start sewing. Experience is the best teacher. Learning is doing! Just go for it. you don't need a reason to get started. At least that is how I did it 44 years ago. I think you can do it. Please keep liking and watching!

Hello Jim, You're not going to believe this, but I used to use a wheel grinder. After I didn't have that anymore, I use am electric hand held grinder. I can hear you cringing right? Works for me! Please keep liking and watching!
WOW! Never would have guessed a grinder. I was expecting you to tell me something about honing stones and a leather strop! Thanks!!@@oldschoolautoupholstery
@@jimgreen964 Hello Jim, I remember about 40 years ago there was a very old gentleman who used to make the rounds. He carried a little suitcase containing his fine electric scissor-sharpening equipment. Wearing his spectacles, he would sit and sharpen away with care. Nobody like that anymore. So after that, I took things into my own hands. Please keep liking and watching!
Is there a chance of you doing a video on how to fix a headliner board? I'm currently rebuilding a car that they no longer make panels for and the original board broke into 5 pieces in hoping it can be put back together
Hello Thunderjet, if you still have all the pieces, I would just put them all together and reinforce the headliner panel on the back side with fiberglass or the poor mans fiberglass method with burlap and wood glue. Please keep liking and watching!
Another great job! have you considered Upholstery for a living. LOL, I did 4 Barstools but they more of a chair bottom in a coarse fabric yours is nicer. Question do you have a Video where you covered something in leather? Have a great day! Les
Hello Lester, Yes, I have thought of it as well as thought of not doing upholstery. Really vinyl and leather is the same process. Please keep liking and watching!
Yes I haven't seen that done in 40 years I think it's the school bus driver's seat anyway it wasn't round. We used do like 50 of them at a time I think it's once a year all the apprentice's would go down to the upholstery shop for the day this was in the 70s. Ours weren't as nice as yours but them lazy upholstery's could fix them lazy bludgers ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
