Darren: I have been watching since you started your channel. I think it is wonderful that you are up to 242K subscribers. Your videos are informative and educational.

Fantastic tutorial 💖💕💖

PERFECT DEMO

Love your videos. I have some Drexel box welted cushioned slip seats the same design as these chairs. Could they be reupholstered the same way as these chairs? They seem to be missing the extra wood flange that you staple into to - I wonder if the edge of the ply slip seat base cold be used for stapling and then the whole cushion screwed onto the chair ? I much prefer this style of cushion. Thanks :)

You do very good work. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. May I ask, do you use the same sized staples for the entire project?

YOU ARE THE BEST

Love this so much super résultat 😻

Great job thanks

You are just amazing

Good job 😊

WOW!!!

Very nice job

good job! keep up with the videos! :)

hello, Just to let you know , you are true craft-man

Can you put a video about different materials you are using including glues , staples , fillers, springs and nails. thank you

Hola, es hermoso lo que haces !! te queria hacer una pregunta, la cortadora de goma espuma es por calos o dientes ? gracias por tus videos !!

Gracias por mostrar el equipo que usas

I've realized that my chairs are horrible!! 😂😂 very good work!! 👌👍

Perfeito. Como eu queria trabalhar com isto

Moc hezké 👍 jste šikulka 👍👍👍

Thanks for the tutorial. May i know if repeated stapling would weaken the wood?

СПАСИБО !😀😀😀

I have cane backed chairs for dining room and couple were damaged in moving. Can back of them be upholstered this way or should cane be replaced? Love your videos. Very informative. Thank you.

Could you please give a list of tools you use. Get the companies to sponsor you so you can mention the brand's you use. Thank you for the remarkable videos. Brilliant.

This is an awesome video. May I know what kind of gun you used?

Loved the video, hated the constant ads.

Hey great

I love your videos! I have 5 old Hotel chairs to do, and they have metal squiggly rods in them, can I take those off and just do mine like this?

Darren, hi 👍🔝congratulation

Thank you for showing how you applied the double welt! Beautiful job you inspire me.

good 👍

Darren, love your work. I consider you a perfectionist, no room for errors. With so many years of experience, thank you for your help and insight. LOVE IT

Do you use a special hot glue to glue the welting or just standard glue like what you get at a craft or hardware store?

How much fabric do I need for a dining chair like that?

What kind of stapler r u using brand name and where I can order it ? Love your show!!

I am looking for a similar kind of dining chair. But some are made with zig zag spring. May I know the difference between having zigzag spring and without ? Is the chair more comfortable without the spring ? As in this kind of Louis Chair.

have you done any reupholstering of a dining room chair where the back has an arch window like you would see in a Catholic Church the foam is flat on the back but it's thick in the front so when you sit in your chair you're actually sitting up so how do you do that part over without messing up the design of the chair? I've done the cushions of my mother's dining room chairs and covered it in plastic not realizing that one plastic was thicker then another piece it was kind of hard but I did it but what is the best way to put plastic over the materials on your chairs ,what is the easiest way to do that? What size staples and staple gun should I use to give the chairs a professional finish? The only staple gun that I had was your standard household staple gun, so for an amateur I think I did okay ,now I want to do my own dining room chairs. Which material is easiest to work with a vinyl ,leather or cloth? How much yardish is needed for reupholstering your standard diningroom chair?

WHERE'S your business located? I would like a tall queen size head board.

It looks so easy but I know if I try this my chairs will look like a DIY project gone wrong. 😁😁😁. Best I leave the upholstery of chairs to the professionals.

What is a good resource for fabric if you don't have a business license and live in the U.S.? LOVE these videos! Thank you!

Darren, Are you going to do a video on the big deep button white leather ottoman at the very start of the video. Thanks.

How much over the sides must the 6” foam be cut to fit a chair.?

Não intendi os comentários, mas ficou show.

How much fabric does the chair take

what make is your staple gun? It sure would have made my job easier! And do you have a double cord presser foot on that sewing machine?

How much is the bill for a chair like that? You work fast. Thanks for the in depth job.

What kind of glue are you using

What model is that stapler, please. This is a great video. I’m trying to learn upholstering and I need to get a good stapler.

hi! why don't you fix the bigger foam with staples? thanks!

👍

😊

Is the smaller cushion always necessary? or just to plump them up?

🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍

What is that tool you use to cut the foam with?

Please name the brand and pattern # of the fabric .

Anyone on finding template Drawings to manufacture them ?

What table do you have

Ohhhhh you covered both back and from of chair separately……not seen this before !

👍👏👏👏👏

I’m surprised you didn’t use something to make back more durable

Very nice 👍🏼🥹thanks

The way to apply double welt with glue is not good.

I couldn't help but notice that on the chair's back, instead of webbing, you used a heavy tightly woven fabric ---why? Would it be it's because that chair's back won't need that much extra um (?) strength...I can't come up with a better word.
