    You need a t-shirt or a decal with “ It’ll be Fine “ I know I’d buy one to be one of the cool 😎 kids at the next show or swap meet.

    having never done any upholstery, when you use the piping how do you attach it. Has it got like a flange you sow to? (Don’t even no what it’s called). I think a little detail like a chrome edge at the front of the panel would be a nice touch like the boot. ( trunk). Anyway very good and looking forwards to seeing the air ride working. Cheers Tim.

    The piping has a 3/8 seam allowance that you sew to.

    There is something I would like to do --- if done by an upholstery shop would probably cost quite a bit --- Consew machines --- one is looking at $1.600.00 ----- Too much for only doing a couple of your own cars---- And that would be to sew my own -- for a '30 Model A Coupe ------ Start with the least obvious first -- like -- door cards rather than the seat. ---- It would be a nice accomplishment --- to hopefully feel good about when finished--------------- You mentioned you were using a 1956 Singer Sewing Machine ---- Can you tell me the Model ---- I know all Singers can't sew Automotive material ------ One other thing -- since we are on it ------ What is the Thread you use to do Automotive ----- I don't know if they go by -- thickness -- or -- gage ---- I would think it is a heavy weight to with stand the wear and tear -------- Thank You for Sharing --- and going into detail in the steps --- Really appreciated ---------- Rodney

    Hi Rodney, I’m not sure the model of my Singer. $1600 is pretty high, unless it’s brand new. Used industrial sewing machines can be obtained for as little as $500 (mine was even less). Just stick to brand name stuff (Singer, Juki, Phaff) as they are easy to get parts for and service of ever needed.
