Yes, your bloated, over worked brass bands. I'm not interested in your work.
No, only joking. I think you need to expand on this little piece of potentially genius handiwork. My **** needs some new upholstery to perch on. I need some inspiration.
C'mon man... when your finger has shrunk enough to be able to press the shutter, stick up a few less bloody pics for us all to wonder at.

This is UV protected - bike orientated vinyl - a little stretchier than most - but good tough stuff - imo
Specified as being black but to be honest transpired to being more of a dark gray - better looking too imo

old covers always come off
no glue - just staples - I like the vinyl to be able to slide as you stretch it
You end up stretching here then undoing some staples and redoing the tension there
- then again and again over and over around and around until
all corner folds and creases are in under the lip and stapled down.
Never staple to close to the lip edge starting out - always in as far as you
can and don't trim off until the seat looks 100% from the top side -
it's take a bit of finagling - but comes out good if you are patient with it .

Ebay ..........LINK
FYI - I have a pneumatic 22guage long nose upholstery stapler - which helped heaps too
as you can use the nose of the stapler to grip and stretch the vinyl under the lip and then
shoot the staples.....
