That was very enjoyable. I love watch a craftsman do good work. You doubledthe value of that mower. If it was mine I'd do whatever it took to keep it running. Great job

Good job.... but Dude I want to patch the hole not build a new seat. I bought one for $10 with no rip. Thanks for the video.

Well now there's way more to that than I had any idea no wonder it costs so much to have a seat recovered .

@stitchingsteve 3 ай бұрын

There sure is!! and thanks for watching. Many don't realise actually how much goes into upholstery. There are still those that think everything is a 10 minute job, it's just a bit of sewing right?

I just don't understand how the side pieces worked out to be even. You measured from a square cushion and then you cut the corners round. Maybe I flunked geometry but I thought that would be a different distance for a round corner. Just Asking!

@stitchingsteve 4 ай бұрын

If I had cut the top vinyl to the correct size it would have changed and become smaller once I added the backing foam. So marked oversize (square), then laminated, then shaped to the cushions radii's and also going off centre measurements to keep symmetrical. Both side boarder and piping are cut oversize and trimmed down accordingly. If the job requires exact side boarders then "finished size" perimeter needs to be plotted and marked accordingly. Hope that makes sense

@stitchingsteve 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching! You could buy a new seat, if you can find one for a 30yr old mower. You could also set yourself up for doing jobs like this... or take it to someone who has all the gear and materials already? Plus this was for my own mower so my time and materials wasn't an issue

@stitchingsteve 5 ай бұрын

Not sure it has a retail name, look for the firmest you can? I've now switched to the pink coloured foam (see later videos) which is much firmer, more dense and more durable

What was the little fabric at the end of the stitching? Where do you buy that stuff around the edge of the seat?

@stitchingsteve 6 ай бұрын

Hey, thanks for watching!! That little bit of fabric is scrap offcuts that I use to sew on to, to stop and start each sew line. It saves holding the thread or wasting more than you need to. Lots of comments about this... Might have to make it's own video 🤔. The stuff around the edge is either called Edge trim, door trim or push on windlace. Try your local Upholster/Motor Trimmer

Thank you, I tried :D not sure what it would cost respectively to where you are, but without the silly logo you should allow a couple hours + vinyl

6mm staples around the entire seat, but where there are 2+ layers of vinyl I will use one or two 8mm staples for a better hold.

Is that scrap piece of vinyl used so you don't have to hold the ends of the thread when starting a new line?

That is exactly that. Holds the thread ready for the next stitch and keeps the tension at the same time. No more binding or jamming threads in the bobbin

This is a nice tutorial, it shows how to save time :-) (nice to see what you do with that small piece of cloth what you use to save time when changing parts)

@stitchingsteve 11 ай бұрын

Hey, thanks for watching. It saves time and a spare hand from holding the threads each time. At that point thread tension can slip or jam the machine, so the small piece really saves everything
