    Your videos have been so informative for me. I would really like to see you do a chair that has the post like this but where the fabric wraps around the bottom of the back and sides to be stapled. I’m having a hard time figuring out how to make it work. And can’t seem to find a video to learn how to do it. Thanks 😊

Should the front legs have a different type of cut other than straight? Thanks so much

    Hey Amy, ANOTHER awesome video. Your technique for pulling the sides taught toward the corners is great information as well as restapling where you removed the right positioning staples. Could you give some info during one of your vids regarding the table you work on. Top dimensions and especially height. Is it all just personal preference or are there suggested heights for particular tasks? Thanks!

Staples breaking apart when trying to remove. What gauge or length of staple should be used to reupholster this piece? What gauge/type of Pneumatic stale gun do you recommend?

      3/8” x 3/8” 22 gauge is the typical upholstery staple. 1/2” long and 1/4” long can be useful, but not necessary. A brad nailer is also a great tool to have.
