I have an antique dining room chair where the wooden seat structure is not configured to pop that seat form out of a “rail” it seems to be seated in. Do I take the whole chair apart? Is there an easier way? Thank you, Mari
Hi Mari, Look underneath the chair and you may see holes with screws. If not there may be decorative trim hiding the staples holding the fabric on.
