[DMCForum] Re: Seat Options

["Joe OBrien" <joeyoseppijoe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yours are very nice, mainly because yours were done by an individual.

Ones made by a hobbyist, or leather professional, usually seem to 
put more effort into their work, as there is more to it for them 
than just making money.

Most upholstery shops just crank them out, and say "there it is, 
that's all the better it can be"

Individuals have more of a pride sense than a jaded shop and take 
their time.


Just my $0.02
