Recycling leather by harvesting from a old chair for a new project

In this video I show you how to harvest leather from a old broken chair
Disclaimer: I love my children but sometimes they can be very destructive.
also very disappointed the the furniture making process and how they can label item as 100% when it is about 60% the rest is leatherette material (fake leather

Usually, if you read the fine print or details when buying a leather chair... it will say all leather. where your skin will be touching... like the backrest, seat and the leg portion of a recliner, and it will say that the sides and back are not genuine leather... at least when I bought mine at lazy boy, thats how it was... but they still lasted and still going after 21 years. Its all in how you take care of your furniture and the frame and would that it is made of. My chairs look like the day I bought them.
