looking for some seats for a spectra 18' mini

« **Reply #25 on:** April 26, 2009, 01:43:38 PM »

i might buy some of the seats from JBP the 24" wide ones. i did some measuring and those seats will work. im not sure if JBP has a line on covers but i know that lucky stiff does. so Skip whats is the price for just some standard seat covers that are white vinyl with red piping? im not looking to go to broke

. thanks

Did you soak the wood to get it to bend? or just the relief cuts?? Looks like it turned out killer.

« **Reply #33 on:** June 10, 2009, 03:06:49 PM »

Thanks guys, but there not done yet. I still have plenty of opportunity to screw them up.

Kerfed every 1/8", soaked for a couple of hours on each side. I just lay some rags over the wood and pour water over it every half hour.

Nice! I couldn't figure out how the heck you did that.

Dave, here's a pic of your seats. Thought I better show some progress, before you fire me. Those are some big seats, bought 2 qts of bondo to see how far they would go. Ended up buying another gallon. I'll sand them up tomorrow.

well i got a call this morning at about 730am hawaiian time from A1 telling me my seats are done. they they took alittle longer but i dont care since i have spent more time in hawaii and will not be home until the 2nd and they are closed on sundays anyways. i havent seen them but i had some special stiching done in the seat backs which should look really cool and hopefully gets a good laugh. pics when i get back to the mainland
