Welcome to the Daily Chair. All the tacks are out now, all approx 200. I’ve tidied the work area and am ready to attach the linings, the springs then the padding and covers. Yay.
I have also been buying some tapestry fabrics to make some scatter cushions, 2 big cushions for the big chairs, and two smaller ones for the dining captain chairs.
here are some of the components . I have to staple and sew it all into something resembling a functional supporting seat. There’s the wood frame, the webbing, springs, lining fabric and the cover . That grey stuff is the original kapok chair stuffing
I was told that the two armchair dining chairs in a set of dining chairs were called the carver as it was the meat carvers chair. So maybe the main dining chair?

Turning all those bits into a functional chair seems like basically witchcraft. I am very impressed.
What is a dining captain chair?

I want to be a captain meat carver so bad I can taste it
yes, the two end carvers
How did you get into this hobby? It is the most admirable.
