Upholstery Tools | What You Need

[georgeanddaisysboxers]

Thanks for the tips. I inherited my mom's upholstery tools after she passed a couple month ago. I did some reupholstery projects with her as a teen and I've done a few small projects on my own as an adult... That's why she left me her tools (because I'm a lot like her in the crafty, creative, diy regard). I can't wait to get started so I will be watching your videos for some tips and tricks. I might sign up for a beginners class at the community college although this will just be a hobby of mine. Thanks for the videos.

I liked your video. Especially the bits of humor tossed in!! Keep up the good work!

[gergemall]

Thank you. I’m learning how to sew leather and thought I’d check your channel out. ❤

Very interesting, very informative & brilliant tips especially love the one about using board behind a skirt to help iron creases!!! This will be soooo helpful. Ive got removable/washable covers (as we have several dogs) & it is alays a true struggle to get a good finished look when putting covers back on TFS

I learned one thing after 6 decades on earth as a female - You can NEVER have enough tools!🤪
Tools for sewing, jewelry making (metalsmithing), welding, woodworking, gardening, cooking, leathercraft, upholstery, car repairs, soldering, restoration.... what did I leave out? I have some of each. I love my tools. The ability to create is oxygen to me. When my house burned down, I was so relieved my tools were safely in a detached garage. If the tools had died, I would have too.
Great to know what these tools are for. Who does not have some upholstery project to do in their life sometime, eh? I have several piling up and need to do them soon. Very grateful for this video! Thank you! The humor was very funny! Subscribed.

The most important thing in making a DIY Demo video is NOT TO ADD MUSIC. It injures the ears and mind. I like to hear natural sound of tools and voice, not artificial music. Please do not add music to any DIY, demo, tour, wildlife, or cooking video.

Thanks Bill! Great share. I'm rewebbing my sofa as I watched this. 1st job this big. I've only had to start over once so far. You forgot to mention the main upholstery ingredient! 3 million six cases of spaples!! So far I've shot and removed and reshot a million six. OH my hands!! There's so many wasted staples on the floor! If I melt them down, I'd prob have enough to make siding. I also picked up a telescoping magnet wand. LOVE! I actually have kids fighting to pickup staples. Who'd a thunk. It saves the back when you drop a tool too. No, I didn't staple a my hammer up in the sofa...☺️🤭 Okay, but just ONCE! I was shocked that the wand latched on to a full size hammer and held on to it all the way out of the hole!😂😂 Thanks for all the great vids, tips, and sharing your mad skills.

You might do a video on sewing machines. I've been interested in sewing covers for airplanes, and doing seat cushions, boat fender covers, etc., for a long time. I've bought a bunch of what I thought were heavy duty machines, walking foot and the like. I should have invested in a compound walking foot machine instead. You know, the kind where the needle actually pulls the fabric? They work so much better than a standard walking foot machine. What kind do you use?

I call that tool that is marketed as a wire cutter "side cutters". I prefer 'flush cut' ones, though for some tasks a pair that angles in both sides of the cutting edge can be useful. I use them a lot in upholstery work for tear down/tear back to pull on trim or remove staples or pry up nail or tack heads. I used to use the curved staple lifting pliers a lot for similar tasks, but got into the habit of using the cutters instead.

How do you sharpen your scissors? Do you have tools in house or do you send them out?

Thanks for this, greetings from Scotland

[wobblytreehouse]

Thanks for the video! I've been slowly gathering up tools as I need them for a few small projects. I have looked at a few websites, but I am curious what is your preferred source for materials and supplies?

[realdeal]

How long have you you been in upholstery and what kind on money can you make ?

[matildadimas]

Is that a knife sharpener? Or just wood with sandpaper?

[caringdrug]

No iron, try spray bottle and heat gun
