Hello, I'm a student making and upholstering a chair. However, I don't have a lot of knowledge on upholstery and was wondering if I could get any advice on techniques or improvements. I have pictures of the chair, the foam, webbing and fabric.

What wood are you using for you legs?
Have you sat on the frame to determine if the legs will flex?
I have seen legs with a similar cross section flex and many the chair wobble as the person’s weight is shifted in the chair.
