I finally caught a glimpse of another human who looks at trash and sees it parted out or revamped. Comes from being trained through REALITY as an Art Teacher with boo coo students and laughable budget. You gotta think bulk...two kinds: large single item and then multiples of small to medium items....say a chest of drawers versus the drawers, castors, legs, pulls, channels,, screws, etc where there are 4 plus. Every ecclesia should have a person or group that makes a living for their family and future making haste the things soon going to waste that might be helpful to a neighbor at various stages of life whether one sizing, nun, hun, hun + bun, ton, or just DONE sizing.altogether.

@@AndieZ4U2 ABSOLUTELY AGREE! Industrial consumerism haemorrhages embedded energy like a burst water-mane: it’s a 24/7 disaster right under our noses. Government corruption and deregulation is a major cause, but the real enemy is the background stress level on citizens just trying to stay afloat with no savings and woeful social security. Fear and exhaustion keeps people oppressed.

Just amazing! Our 'throw-away' culture is out of hand. This tutorial embraces our human need to create and fix and re-use. Kudos to your imaginative sprit and your willingness to share so the rest of us can continue to learn.

I want one! It's beautiful and could be put in any room, not just hidden away in the office! Thanks for the idea.

I throw away the seat -art, and keep an eye open for discarded wooden chairs. A 100-year-old salvaged wooden chair on a modern base is just wonderful.

How thankful I am that you posted this video and that you positioned your camera to have clear shots of each step in the dismantling and reassembly. My sturdy office chair of 30 years is still in mint condition, including the upholstery. The only problem is that it wobbled too. Unfortunately when I dismantled my wheel base from the chair base, I didn't take pictures each step along the way so couldn't figure out how to reassemble the washers, ball bearings, and that indispensable 1/2" black ring. Thanks to your video, I can repair the wobbling AND reassemble the cylinder and wheel base!!! Thank you, thank you!

What a coincidence. I have every single tool at home! I even have those same exact fabrics! Let me fix up my old beat up office chair right now lol

I worked for a Swiss office seating company for 25 years, bring back old memories. You did a great job on that chair really. One thing that I saw that amused me was when you were scraping off the bottom of the seat board. It sure looked to me that the T-nut that held the control were put in wrong from the factory, The T-nut with flanged part should have been on the seat pan where you put your foam. Rocking around on that could cause the nuts to pull right out, be careful who uses that chair. But still a great job.

@ArtHeld

3 жыл бұрын

Wow! Good Eye! During disassembly (around 0:44) it looks to me like they were manufactured correctly w/the arm t-nut flanges on the bottom of the pan and the seat t-nut flanges on the top side. It's hard to be certain, but by 3:44, they all (arm and base) appear to be flange side down. Maybe when he peeled the rotten plywood layer off the top, he thinned the sheet so much the t-nuts stuck out. Then, even with the t-nut bolted hard against the base support, the plywood would slide down the t-nut barrel and the seat pan would rock, so he switched the flange to the bottom side, not realizing how rapidly they would pull out without the plywood to work against? Who knows. As you say, an overall nice rebuild, but be careful sitting on it until those pedestal t-nuts are reversed (and maybe shimmed?), and I fear the white in that floral pattern is going to look dingy pretty fast, especially on the seat and arms.

I used an old office chair for a Pex unwinder, put some angle brackets on it, added a wood base. The pex unraveled from the center. Worked great.

I’ve repaired my chair before but I just threw away the actual chair and put a car seat on it then the upgraded rollerblade wheel casters from Amazon. Better than any chair I’ve purchased in the past now. Car seats are designed to last for years and for hours of use at a time and the bigger wheels make it so easy to roll around.

Do you know contact paper is cheap as hell and can be put up along top of windows to cut glare, light, and heat? Duct and masking tape of any color box cutter, and 22x28 poster boards of any color are all you need to create "blind and shady curts?" We dump too much 💩 out that has a function: knobs, screws, closures, ballasts, pulleys, cords, magnets, wire, wheels, etc.
