Hickory Posted January 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 That's the same one that I've watched, good technique. I'm looking for some ideas so they aren't plain Jane but not the gaudy flames and hotrod stuff. I think I'm going to try some real wood inlays with the Chrysler chrome script glued on to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 He has a ton of other videos, some of them on how to make 3D panels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg g Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 Made our own a few years back. Had enough of the originals for templates. Need to find a pic or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg g Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Can't find my pics. We bought backer board from an auto upholstery shop. Used two glued on layers of cotton batting and fabric that we used to make seat covers. Got it in the clearance bin at Jo Ann's fabric. Then stapled the fabric top and bottom to the backer board. Then put a 8 inch high leatheret on the bottom. No elbow rest in the deluxe. We we re going to stick in some detail but decided against it. Biggest pain was folding over the ends of the sraples that went through the backer board. On the top of the cards mind where you put the Staples so that the window garnishes cover then when installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJK Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Does anyone have the brand name and part # for the wire door panel clips that he used in the video?

DJK Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thanks Sniper, I googled it and it took me to the video which gave the info where to order them. I'll have plenty if anyone needs any. they look a lot easier to use than the original clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
