I began part time upholstery late 2018 mostly doing automotive and heavy machinery foam and seat repair in preparation of my retirement. Kind of spread my wings out and decided to take on this project. I remember driving home after I picked up this motor home sofa/bed, I started to wonder what the heck i’ve Done. Can I tackle this ´´. Well after a lot of stress and frustrations, yes i’ve Done it. I felt I was on top of the mountain, so all you beginners, hang in there, be nourished by positive attitude and you will succeed.
