Time to re-upholster - Formula 330 SS

[Scott Danforth]

Scott, other than that it works good for you? I just go thru vinyl and into the plywood or plastic Thanks for the reply.

works great. shot everything from 1/4" staples thru the thin backing for the dash pads to 1/2" staples on the trailer carpet. been thru about 7000 staples so far.

shot into plywood, plywood with epoxy, plywood with fiberglass, PVC foam board and the bunks on the trailer, which I believe are treated yellow pine.

at 120 psi, you will shoot the staples directly thru the vinyl cutting a nice long slit. so back the pressure down to the 80-100 psi range

And Happy Easter to all.

I am still working on the mooring cover (canvas/sunbrella), with attaching all of the snaps, but that should be done soon.

 

[Scott Danforth]

Ted, looks like the site is acting up as none of your pictures have shown up.

 

[tpenfield]

Yes, it is acting up. Sometimes they show up and other times not.

They do look great Ted

 

[southkogs]

Still haven't seen 'em ... sound good though

 

[tpenfield]

I'll try re-posting the pics . . .

 

[Scott Danforth]

Ted...... great job on the seats......... you do have a problem though......all that nice shiny new vinyl is highlighting your rug needs cleaning.

 

[alldodge]

and the helm could use an update now

 

[southkogs]

Now I see 'em! Nice work. It really does look great.

 

[JASinIL2006]

Holy cow! Those look great! Really impressive work!

 

[mr300z87]

Great work. I was thinking the same as Scott!!. You might even have a new career when you retire from IT.

 

[Reserector_]

I am truly blown away. Your boat is incredibly nice.

 

[MRS]

Wow sweet wish I could do as good as yours. I did order the air stapler porter gable had the thinner head on it that I need for the tight spots. Scott yes ordered it on amazon

 

[MRS]

Ok got it today going to re-staple lots of stuff now what staples do you use or does it matter?
I want to be like you when I grow up

 

[Scott Danforth]

I use monel staples, however if you are in fresh water, you can get away with stainless

 

[tpenfield]

I used stainless. Didn't see monel on the site that I was ordering from, or would have ordered those. The originals were stainless.

I had 'forgotten' to make a new skin for the sunpad filler cushion, and realized it when I was cleaning up the boat a few weeks ago. So, here is the new filler cushion
