DirtyDigz 1,812 Posted April 22, 2014 I've got a weight bench that I really like, adjusts to different angles, has a dip station,etc. Problem is that my cats really took a liking to it to - as a scratching pad. They've ripped the cheap vinyl fabric that covers it to shreds. Little effers - $200 worth of cat tower with sisal rope scratching posts in the next room, and they decide to use the weight bench instead... I want to get the pad on the bench reupholstered with something a lot more durable (maybe cordura?) and maybe some firmer foam padding as well. Any suggestions for a shop that can do this kind of work in the Easter Morris County/Morristown area? It's a simple shape (long rectangle), and I'm not looking to spend multiple Benjamins on this.

AverageJoe 95 Posted April 22, 2014 u can prob do it yourself...foam padding, knife, whatever kind of covering and a staple gun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oneshot 45 Posted April 22, 2014 If you are in the market for a new one My GF owns www.rocksolidfitness.com She generally has any number of styles of benches aside from everything else you could possibly want. prices are good. Shes GUN FRIENDLY :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joeyd6 0 Posted April 22, 2014 As stated, you can do it yourself if you get a good staple gun and a trip to your local JoAnn Fabrics (foam and vinyl covering). All that thing is is plywood with foam and vinyl stapled down. You could do it yourself for $30 from scratch. If you want something that will be heavier, commercial grade, bring the board to AM Auto Trimmers (Rt 46 in Dover). They re-covered an old garage stool my grandpa had with some left over leather from a car they were doing for a very reasonable price since I left it for a week. Don't be a dick and pay by credit card/debit card.....cash....and explain up front this is for your weight bench, smile and be patient with them. They will do you right!

DirtyDigz 1,812 Posted April 23, 2014 Armaflex looks interesting, but I'm wondering if it's just more shred bait for the cats. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
