As usual with Dan and I, we have always got projects on the go. Today it was the chair that came with my desk in the new trailer. The seat of this chair consisted of a piece of particle board cover with foam and upholstered to match the lounge chairs. And particle board being what it is, is not very strong and it broke into many pieces. So, somewhere down the road some idiot decided to repair it by removing the damaged seat, roughly cutting a piece of plywood to almost fit under the damaged seat and place the damaged seat back on top of it, with rough cut plywood showing all around.
So, today's project was for me to remove it all from the chair frame, salvage the upholstery fabric and foam. Dan cut the piece of plywood to the correct measurement, we discarded the smashed up piece of particle board and replaced it with the newly cut plywood and I re-upholstered it.
And here it is below, sitting in front of my desk, as good as new.
IT IS VERY SATISFYING TO BE ABLE TO DO THESE KIND OF THINGS.
(It saves a lot of money too)
