*laugh**laugh**laugh* You guys are great! Though I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, I loved the Cinderella mini-concert!
(And Ken...shame on you for making us feel so old! How can you not know about Cinderalla! *eek!* Next you'll be telling us you never heard of Europe (as more than a geo-political entity) or Whitesnake (as a means of seeing Tawny Kitaen's famous nip slip). *oh my*
But anyway, regarding upholstery...
I've done somemodest piece work (for sport aircraft seats)...and I've seen lots done by other non-pros...and my experiences have been that doing upholstery is very unforgiving to the amature. *whaah* It's not too bad to get the basic mechanics down, but it's really difficult to get a result that doesn't have tucks and puckers and baggy areas.
That said, there are people who can do it. And WE are people. And therefore, with the right knowledge and practice, we could be people who could do it. Right?
In my town, there is a little Ma and Pa upholstery place that operates out of a little old garage. If you can find a place like that and ask to just spend a little time looking over their shoulder, you'll learn a lot really, really fast. If you explain your project and maybe buy some materials from them, a shop like that would probably give you some pointers.
And then there is the almighty YouTube. I haven't checked this oracle yet, but it rarely let's a person down.
Yaughn (or anybody)... If you're bored and have some time, cast out some lines and see what YouTube (and the rest of the web) has to offer... and then bring the bounty back here an show what you found if you find any good resources. This is a good topic.
One last thought: Go easy with the naugahyde. The Nauga's are almost extinct! *laugh**laugh*
