- Synthetic MaterialsHello! I'm a new member of the guild. I learned how to cane from my mom, who learned from my dad, who had an upholstery business but didn't enjoy caning. Does anyone have a source for synthetic splint? A potential client has four porch rockers, and three of the backs are in good shape. The hope is to preserve them. The material is a half inch wide and brown. Thanks, and take care.Like
- Splint WeavingI have read various opinions at several sites regarding putting a "finish" on ash splint seating. Everything from "don't do it," to shellac, spar varnish, to wipe-on poly, etc. I am working on a Old Hickory style barrel back seatee swing that is on a boat dock during the season. The current splint is "white" due to sun bleaching. and broken through. Don't want to seal the splint so much that it becomes brittle but also want to provide some protection. Any thoughts and suggestions are welcome. Thank You! George CollinsLike
