Chair Seats are Made of a specially formulated fiberboard
that will not separate. They can be trimmed with a pair of shears, tin snips
or a band saw. They can be painted , stained, sealed, or used as is. As
these boards take stain differently than wood, we recommend using a piece
of trimmed scrap from the seat board to test the results.
AD 3501 Decorative Nails are the most popular for the
installation of chair seats as they have small heads with a low dome. Other
nails also work well. Nails work for Fiber Seats, Leather Seats and Wood
Seats.
To determine the amount of nails necessary, plan on
using at least one nail one to one and a half inch apart. For example, a
chair seat 13" in diameter using a 1 1/2" spacing would require
28 nails. |
