    Hey, have you ever worked on a coil spring swivel chair? I was in talks with an upholsterer about repairing my 40+ year old one but the bearings started falling out and I wasn’t sure if repairing it was within an upholsterer’s wheelhouse.

      I have tied springs. I’ve replaced swivels. Tieing springs isn’t really hard, but it is time consuming. I do almost 100% boat upholstery and canvas. People usually choke on the price for furniture but boaters are maybe used to it lol.
