I am in the middle of making a couple of Chippendale repro wing chairs .
The
frames will be good quality [for me at least] in white oak with exposed
wood
in mahogany.

In passing, I checked on quality upholstery and about passed out when I
was
confronted with prices . So I am going to get into the subject so I can do
my own upholstery. I would be interested in any recommended good texts on
the subject. thanks ....mjh

I have _Furniture Restoration_ V. J. Taylor. Also for refinishing
_Restoration Recipes_ James Smith & Julia De Bierre. _Furniture Doctor_
is okay. I buy my supplies from http://www.garysupholstery.com
