I have some dining chairs where the foam in the seat pads has disintegrated, and need to fix for Xmas. ;-(
The pad consists of a (looks like) solid beech frame with woven webbing stretched across it in both directions. With a foam pad on top. The fabric covering is in good condition.
The webbing has also sagged or in some cases broken.
So some questions.
What is the best webbing to buy that won't sag and break? Would the original foam pads have been moulded - the seat bottoms had a sort of domed appearance when new. But the foam is too far gone to tell now. It appears to have been about 1" thick. Would that be right? I've not found trimming foam neatly to be easy - so is there a better material to use? The cost doesn't matter too much - within reason.
