upholstery how-to?

[oino]

Looking for a How-to on the upholstery frame work.
I want a on the top edge of the body. Don't know how to do the wood or other on top before the upholstery goes on.

Hope I'm making sense.

Are you looking for the wood inside the body? This stuff?

If so search for "wooding" should come up with a few threads on how to

Nope. Looking for how to do do the wood or what ever for the top lip.

Ahhh okay.

In that case, I dunno. I think that drop in is all one piece.

Im pretty sure that the width your seeing is just the padding plus the width of the body.

Hey Keeper.
I like how you did your side panels and attached it to the top. Do you have any more pics other then the ones you posted in your build.

There might be some more in the "Build continues" album in my sig.

Though I am changing that when I re-do the interior. I will make the door panels and that top rail detail separate. I could not get a clean look where the back panel and the side panels connected.

This time I am going to make a "Rail" that goes along the top of the body that the material will fold over, it will be a one piece deal and then the door panels will go over top to hold it down.

I will post some pics once I start on it. Hopefully this week.

There was another post on this, I think Dana posted it. I will see if I can track it down.

Here is his post. I plan on borrowing some of this for mine. Though I am going to sew it up into one piece.

Yep. Like that would be great.
But, After looking at that site Keeper posted. I think I'm going to go that route. Time saver and It looks good.

What did you use to fasten the wood to the body.
