| Leif, I've had some good results with citrus strippers. | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| Leif, I've had some good results with citrus strippers. And they are certainly less unpleasant to work with, but I've never used anything that comes even close to the efficacy of di-clo for when you're not exactly sure about what's on there. I really hate ending up with too many containers of leftover solvents, paints, finishes, and other potentially hazardous and difficult-to properly-dispose-of materials in my shop, so I try to keep it as simple as I can buy limiting my purchases to as few basic and proven products as possible. | |||||

| Thank you, atomicmod. I... Thank you, atomicmod. I will look out for these - although it seems to be excessively difficult to find single CADO components - everybody that I've seen wants to sell entire systems (sometimes they wait to gather components from multiple sources)? sigh. But it's good to know that it's at least possible 🙂 | |||||
| Rilsan coating | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | niceguy | General discussion | |
| Rilsan coating D-sign Your first question was perhaps difficult to answer using the internet. Forum members were able to help. The cost of Rilsan coating can be ascertained by contacting one of the many companies listed on the "internet". I have attached a link for Advanced Industrial Coatings (found on the internet). Make some type of attempt to do your own homework. http://www.aic-coatings.com/#!rilsan-nylon/c195t | |||||

| ... research there was a write up that said they originally came in either cotton or nylon, and it's definitely not cotton. The set has been in the family for years I think originally purchased in the 50's or 60's. I acquired it in '90, but it is possible the flagline was replaced prior to that. I want to match what is on the existing chairs, which makes this more difficult. I had hoped to find a repair place where I could bring in a fully strapped chair and have an expert select the right flagline and install. Will continue my on-line search. I really appre ... | |||||
| no sale on the "ETR prototype? | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Eameshead | General discussion | |
| no sale on the "ETR prototype? ..so M_Dennis87 and glass artist, now is your chance to swoop in and make a low ball offer! I'm only half kidding.. Just because it did not draw a bid is not proof that it couldn't be a working model or prototype of some kind. It just means that nobody wanted to bet the minimum bid on a table that was widely advertised. And conversely, if someone WOULD have paid the minimum bid, that would not have been "proof" of anything either. I guess that is the way auctions work though. One person's interest (bid) gives the others confid ... | |||||

| Since this came back up I fig... Since this came back up I figured I'll let you know what I did. Keep in mind, I'm simply an enthusiast. not a leather pro, nor a mid century buff. I got the chairs from a friend for a great deal. They were part graduation gift. When I received the chairs all of the bottom leather straps were broken and the original spinneybeck cushions were (brush) painted with some type of latex vinyl paint. Really cheap stuff that was peeling all over. (Whatever the product was, it should be illegal.) I found a way to remove the latex vinyl ... | |||||
| Not true | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| Not true I have a 1958 egg chair, all original in black leather. It swivels. So has every other early example like it I've seen. If it is stamped rather than labeled, that would indicate early production. Likewise the absence of a loose seat cushion. However, the early chairs which were made without seat cushions have more foam padding under the upholstery than later chairs which had the loose cushion. It's subtle, but if you see them side-by-side or have scrutinized some in person it is not difficult to discern. | |||||
| Heller Max 2 | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | niceguy | General discussion | |
| ... the same Max 2 design (all made in Italy). The later Max 1 design (made in USA) are everywhere. Some of the colors (or non colors: black) and trays (oval service platter) are more difficult to locate. I continue to buy these items when they are available at low pricing. I am just shy of a few hundred pieces. I have no use for this amount, but "need" as never bested "desire" as a requirement for acquisition. | |||||

| but.. | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Robert Leach | General discussion | |
| but.. it's that odd looking piece that has 2 very convincing looking Vitra labels on it. Perhaps they had it fabricated for the reasons you say, and transferred the labels? However, the paper one looks like it was always there, and would be difficult to transplant! Mysterious.. | |||||

| I think you lucked out with... I think you lucked out with that grain. It still seems difficult to match, but probably not impossible. Handles: route sequential deep narrow slots down a strip of wood. Chop the strip between the slots into handle lengths. Route matching slots in the drawer fronts. Cut and sand aluminum to slot sizes. Insert aluminum into handle, and drill the two large holes through the wood and aluminum.. Chop aluminum handle pins. To hold the pins in place I would gouge the pin a bit where it will be hidden inside the wood apply a bit of li ... | |||||

| ... the very basic level of your questions. And restore a finish is entirely inappropriate for the issues I see on that piece. It has made all the scratches darker than the rest of the wood because the coloring in it soaked in where there was no finish in the scratches to stop it. Now you have stained the scratched areas darker than the rest of the piece and will likely not get it back out without sanding all the way through the veneer. I am sorry you did not ask first. It went from a normal restoration which requires knowledge and skill to a very difficult on ... | |||||

| ... paste foam rubber fitting the chair with spray glue Under pressure. Next cut pattern from old one and sew it up. Then fit fabric to foam rubber with spray, this is the hard part cause it drys so fast you have to do it real fast and in sections.(that is the trick folks cause this can be more difficult then it looks as air bubbles get under the fabric . Put on new crimp cord. These can be found on the internet as you cannot use the old one as it will break do to age. Good luck | |||||
