We have found that it is best to use these dry but you can soak in lukewarm water for 20-30mins before use. The supplier does NOT recommend soaking. The average riempie chair or bench with a seat with 8 or 9 holes per side, will need about 4-6 strips. Your order will include a selection of lengths - between 1.6-1.9m long
Download instructions for DIY riempieing with white riempies. The method for using raw riempie is similar but requires a much longer soaking in cold water. |

| DANISH CORD | ||||
|
Danish cord was manufacturered in England as well as Denmark but the English manufacturer has now stopped producing it and I am not importing any due to the cost. |
||||
|
I do still have lots of: Danish cord nails - 6p each. These have shanks of either 20mm or 25mm
Replacing staples with nails is a very time consuming affair. If you have access to one, it is easier to use a stapler, preferably a narrow crown with narrow crown staples. Available from Axminster tools. If you must use nails, I suggest that you drill tiny (staggered) pilot holes first to avoid the seat rail splitting. |
