Looks good. I like the coping saw trick. I might use that if I try to make new cushions for my chair. I haven't done upholstery, but from sewing I can tell you that many small pleats usually works better than a couple of big one.

We call them T nuts. Also, an electric carving knife is what we use. If you drill a couple 3/4" holes in the wood to release air pressure, your seams will last a lot longer.

best way I've found to cut foam is by heating up the coping saw blade with a torch then it just flows through.. they actually make a cutter that is very similar with its own heating element. Looks great guys good job!

Good job again.....of course. Several have mentioned using a hot wire. Easy to make for nothing. Some type of holder (wood?) with a larger opening than the foam. Bolts to hold a thin wire.....welding cables to supply juice from a battery. However for small very occasional jobs I use an old carving knife lol.
