Upholstery Sewing Machine?
OK! Talked with ABB.
Aurora Darts is going interiors!:-D
I already have background talents with custom Vans/Pic-ups 70's to present Padded Dash boards with button tuck, door panels, overhead electrronics panels padded with tuck, exterior upholstered fender flairs, vinyl tops, have helped lay out seat covers and installed but not actual sewing but have watched it be done.:read2:
ABB will show me that and we'll use the old covers for patterns after careful disassembly (disection of seams with exacto knife)
I know in my area we have a few guys who do seat covers with no set hours, hit & miss communication, IF you can find them! They all charge $200 per cushon = $800 per 2 bench Dart. I think I can beat that with actual business hours with ethic of being on top of things and available. I have always loved doing the custom interiors and find the end results overly satisfying!!!
Besides 2 out of 3 Dart need their seats redone. We also live next to river and alot of boat seats need redone!
I think I'm on to my new living! I can do year round in my basement and garage, and don't have to deal with the paint and the problems that go with it full time.
I think I'm gonna be the new vinyl dude round here!!!!
Anybody around cincy need work? I'm gettin my sewing machine and new glue guns next week!!! PM me if ya need help with your dash right away! I have demos here you can look at!:cheers:
The seams have 2 material layers, a cord seperating has 2 layers and 1 fiber tape for a total of 5 layers for each seam minumum, plenty of strength there, so sewing machine will have to cut it.
There's a really cool secret about installing very tight covers over fresh new foam, anyone know what that trick is? (sunday morning quize to help you do yours)..........Class.........class...........anyone........class............Ferris do you know?:read2:
