Review on πŸ”§ C.S. Osborne 253 Upholstery Tool for Webbing Stretching with Gooseneck Design by Angela Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The grip offers plenty of leverage and a short finger-to-pivot distance.

I bought this for my first project. I watched a few videos with the cheaper type that has teeth on one end and a piece of rubber on the other. I had a vision that I pierced myself! On the first try, I managed to pull the belt very tight with one hand and fasten it with the other. The handle gives a lot of leverage and the short distance from the teeth to the pivot point (rubber) reduces slipping. Good tools make the learning process much easier. It was worth every extra penny I paid. Success at that first job (table chairs) gave me the confidence that I could interact with others so that I would get more use out of this tool than any other.

Pros
  • Boards and canvas
Cons
  • Something else
