I’m so excited to start my chair

this is great.  I am in the middle of restoring two chairs and then making them into a bench.  You have clarified a small dilemma with the upholstering with this first video....on to the hide glue video.

I have a similarly shaped chair but one arm is slightly loose. There are no obvious fixing points, like screws. How is the arm removed ?
thank you

Whats the best glue to use when restoring an antique high chair?

Cool video. Get rid of that bell. It is obnoxious.

Good video, but not quite correct on woodworm.
The grits/dust produced can remain in holes for many years after infestation has finished. Tapping it out may reveal exactly that - old material. A certain way to discover if infestation is still present is to fix thin tracing type paper over the suspected area and leave it. If after a season, holes appear, then the beasties are still present. No holes, no remaining problem. Some specialists have also discovered that it's possible to hear the beetles munching inside the wood - but you'd require specialist equipment for that.
Woodworm treatments can tend to use unpleasent chemicals, or vary significantly in their efficiency. Some, it could be argued, are little more than 'snake oil'.
