Hello everyone! Happy New Year!!!!!
My cane chair broke and I want to fix it myself. Since this is going to be my first time fixing a cane chair, I have a few questions:
1.
Is this something I would regret doing it myself? From some quick google search it looks like the concept is easy but I don't know if it is really that easy to work with the spline and cane... if the spline is glue down, how do I take it off? Do I have to replace the spline, too?
2.
Rockler has the weave cane.
Has anyone order this from Rockler or similar stuff from other online/local store (Raleigh area). I'm going to need a 2' x 4' sheet. Just want to know if the quality is okay because I don't want to repair my chair every year :eusa_doh:
3.
Any thing I should notice, any trick, any comment or info would be very welcome:gar-Bi
