I have a rocking chair that has this type of seat, but I can't get it to come off, I unsacred the bottom and the arms are in the way can you show me how to fix this issue.

Definitely one of the very best videos I had ever seen on CZcams. That lady is truly amazing, perfect explanations.

Thank you so much for the tutorial and caning kit!

So is white Elmers glue the best to use.? Is that done so that future caner can remove the wedge without any problems? What other glues are an option.

Hello Mr. Hammond. I have a beautiful 2nd hand store chair in need of a new rush seat without corners. It was originally sea grass. I haven't been able to locate a resourch with responsibly harvested grass. Would you know of one or shall i try another material? I live in a very dry climate. Also curious if an oil might be used to extend the life of the seat. I appreciate your instructional video. Thank you!

Thanks ever so much for this tutorial. I watched it 5 or six times while I restaured the old chair

This video was so so helpful! I used it throughout the process of caning a chair.

This is great. If I may ask how should I secure it to start off if my chair is made of wrought iron?

Una pregunta: cómo hacer que no parezca nuevo? Los que venden son muy claros!😢

merci beaucoup ! ma défunte Josiane m'a appris, j'avais besoin d'un petit cours de mise a jour 😇

Curious: How many hours did it take to weave the cane for this seat?

Where do you buy the rattan?

That was awesome. I picked up a round chair from facebook market place that has a hole in the center. So, Iam going to unravel it and redo the thing after first refinishing the chair. Thanx for showing how to weave the rattan seat.😊

Can I contact you?

Can you help me with my project?

If you do this project over multiple days, do you need to re-wet the cane that is in place from the previous day? Thanks!

got a family rush weaved rocking chair passed down to me,, taking it apart as it's a mess -- so thankful for this video - hope my attempt will be 50% of this quality

Thank you so much! This video was great. I just finished my first of two chairs. It isn’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination but it looks good and most importantly my chair now has a seat. I’m very hopeful that the next one will turn out better. I learned a lot and know what to look for when I do my second one. Thanks again!

I’m doing 6 chairs and your video has helped me so much thank you

What size staples, please?

Do you use the cane while it is wet/damp?

Excelent explanation. Thanks !!!!

Thank you. I have 2 160 yr old chairs like the one you have. Didnt know what to do with the seat open area. Will try doing this.

Very neat! I was especially pleased that there were no knots when extending the twine. Question: why weren’t the ends of the twine further strengthened with glue?

I have been weaving chairs for 60 some years, very good job !

Well yours looks terrific. The question is CAN I GET THE SAME RESULTS?!?! gonna find the materials and attempt. If I fail it's ON ME because your video was extremely informative.

You never said how long to soak it in water?

These are the BEST videos! I just finished my first rush seat chair, and the guidance from the videos was absolutely marvelous.

How do you tie off one strand when you run out of strand?

OK, well I'm glad I watched this video before tackling the back of a chair because I wasn't going to do it like that and would have got it wrong! Excellent video.

Thank you so much this was an excellent video !!!

Thank you so much for the incredibly detailed video. I have three chairs i've been wanting to replace the Ruch. You've given me the knowledge. Thank you!!

How long has it been laying in the water? The only thing not mentioned I believe 🥹

"Thanks for sharing these wonderful moments, they really made my day better!"

Great instructional video - thanks for sharing your heard-learned experience !!

You are a God send. I have a beautiful chair I bought at a thrift shop. The rush is all cracked and broken. I was hesitant to fix it but you are such an amazing teacher that I feel confident to fix it. Ordering my rush. Thank you so much!!

I have been to CZcams University more times than I can count, and this is the best professor I’ve seen. I can’t thank you enough!

Best videos of weaving! Thanks for that

Absolutely a work of art,your amazing

I am caning a rocking chair. The seat I did as usual, but the back is difficult. My horizontal strands seem to stick way out. Is there a different technique for rocking chair backs?

I love this. Many thanks for showing the detail how to do this. Can't wait to do it. Jus bought two chairs that need new seats!

Beautiful work. Thank you.

As always, Ed, your videos are top drawer ! Thanks so much !

Thank you for this video. I have two chair seats that need re-caning. I now feel like I can accomplish this task. However, what size cane do I order and how does one figure out how the length to start with?

Wow, a video that is thorough and simplistic at the same time. Bravo. Question #1: Noise? I grew up with chairs woven with "rush", so know the slight "adjustment" squeak the pattern makes when you sit down. Does this reed emit a rubbing sound, too? Question #2: Padding? I see in the comments where someone added newspaper padding. And I have seen where rush is packed with cardboard scraps. Is filler unnecessary or recommended as an added step? Question #3: Finish? Does reed take stain? Is a sealer/varnish/shellac/oil rub recommended to prevent damage/discoloration? I will trust the YT algorithm to serve me up more of your videos, but I put these questions here if you care to jumpstart my research. I had been studying Shaker tape, but this video has promoted reed to the frontrunner spot FWIW. thanks

Шикарный урок плетения!! Огромное спасибо за видео... Я из России...

I have a rattan chair to complete, and your walk through on how to complete this process was very thorough. Thankyou!

Ha, this is great. I followed Ed's video to recane a Toll painted vanity bench. It wasn't eazy but it would have been impossible without Ed's guidance. Looking fw to the woven seat project.

Wonderful videos. I’m about to rerush my parents 1970s Magistretti chairs. Great instructions and very clearly explained. Hoping I can adapt the techniques for our chairs. Thank you for being so generous with your time and expertise.

Hi, I was wondering if you also have a video of a similar seat but with corners. I want to do a restoration but am figuring out how to do it :)
