I also need to refurbish a chair that I found not too long ago but wasn't sure of how to approach it. Thank you for the inspiration and great documentation! Btw, I needed new casters and found out about a great place near me called Clark Caster company just outside Chicago. A great resource that I thought I would share. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. I just took in one of my old casters in and they helped me match them with something very close. I think it cost me under $25 to replace all 4! http://www.clarkcaster.com
