Tuning in!

 I had this old knee-chair in my workshop - cushions and fabrics braking apart - so I got the idea of tuning it a bit.


And since I'm doing this blog, my brother happened to give me a pile of strange junk to work with.
 I got an idea to tune the chair bit more and make the piece of wood as a back rest for the chair.
 Took everything apart. Old foams had became partly dust, and none of it was too attractive,
but the frame had actually nice curves.


 
So I flipped the spike threads to the other side to get that pristine surface of wood that was inside to the bottom. 

 Then took apart this old mattress and cut the cushions out of it.

 Piled it up, sew it on and made it ready for the surface.

             And finally wrapped the leather.
 Then modelt these old irons from a raincutter in their place.




Fit in the back rest and made a small cushion for it.









And added these random pieces of another chair I found drifting in the river the day I was making this, then made a small box behind the seat.


And here it is, a strange coincidence for a chair.
