In April, I wrote an article titled “Why I Build Miniature Car Seats“. The article received such great feedback, that I decided to put together a short how-to video on the subject. This time, however, I’m building a display motorcycle seat.
To build the seat along with me, you’ll need the following templates: Display Motorcycle Seat Backrest and Display Motorcycle Seat Base. They’re in PDF format. Just print them off your computer and you’re ready to get started.
Please leave any questions that you have in the comments section below and I’ll be happy to answer them.
Great video Naseem! Can I convince you to release the out takes?
lol Maybe some day!
Such an awesome video. Thank you so much for taking the time to make it!
Your welcome Ferbs. Remember you can print the template and build one of your own!
Thanks for your support.
Already have them printed and the wood cut Naseem! Should probably get some “real” work done today and then I’m going to play some more. My attempt to make one after I saw the original post was less then successful, so thank you again!
We’d love to see it when it’s completed!
Cool video !! we should all contribute a tech video.
That’s a great idea 8-track! We’d love to have community members contribute how-to’s!
I agree!
Great video, I may be attempting that some time this week. I have only one question: where on earth can you find a “razor blade” that long like the one you used in the video? Or ist that sometheing you made?
I’ve been wondering the same thing as Smiley all day. That’s a great razor blade. From a supplier?? Annnnnddddrrreeeewwwwwww???!!!!???
Thanks guys. I love those razors, I have two and I use them nearly every day. I’ve had mine so long that I don’t remember where they came from but I did see the same ones for sale at the Joanne Fabric store. I’ll try to get a part number for you as soon as I can.
Please do, after seeing that video, I really want one or four.
Great how to thx for taking the time. The camera work and editing is very well done as well.
Thanks Tina!
The video is fabulous! Not only informative, but very well done. My hats off to you Naseem. Im gonna make some of those today. I had to go to Youtube to watch It. It never would load from here.
I’m really glad you liked it poppy! Send some pics over when you’re done your seat. I’d love to see them and remember you can download the templates in the article above.
Nice job!!! Very informative demonstration…
Same procedures are used for real motorcycle seats when doing some repairs or changing the design.
Furthermore, miniature upholstery projects help us to display a variety of designs we can create and customize, giving our customers an idea and/or chance to watch and choose one of its like.
Thanks Cesar. Welcome to The Hog Ring!
We’ve been following you on YouTube for some time now. You’re very talented.
Looks good!
