Refurbished Chair

[Robin]

I bought this chair years ago,it has an aluminum frame which makes it very lightweight yet tough enough to hold up to hard use, out there on the trail or in the shop.



The nylon seat began to rip and I thought it’s days where over but thanks to some cowhide and a Speedy Stitcher, I was able to give a new lease on life.

A real beaut… love repurposing

That is amazing. What a way to not only refurbish, but to take it beyond original glory. Previously a suitable companion for the outdoors and garage, the new version would be at home around the largest hearth of the finest hunting lodge.

Thanks, me too, very handy. I just sewed some patches on an old Woods Pack. Next I’m going to replace some cotton straps on a Duluth Pack with leather straps, rivets and then finish up with the Speedy Sticher.
I’m also going to ad some ax handle guards to a few axes, but I’ll just use cowhide strips and sew by hand.

The refurbished chair is superbly beautiful, Robin.

My buddy has one of those chairs that he uses for hunting. With cowhide, if taken care of at all, that chair will probably outlast all of us. (and still look good doing it). Nicely done.
