Structure preparation

disassembly of the chair what to do to bare the structure

Easy

The first thing to do is to completely remove the existing padding.

Proceed by first removing the decorative strips and nails. Then remove the seed nails always using the appropriate tool.

Try to place the tool on a piece of wood or cloth so as not to leave marks on the wood of the chair. When you hit, always do it where possible in the direction of the grain of the wood so as not to break the structure.

Take a good look at how the initial stuffing was made to see the different techniques used and their evolution.

Never recover old materials, which may only appear to be in good condition. The springs, the crime and the canvases are often worn and cannot guarantee a quality makeover.
