American Craftsmanship ~ 8-Way Hand Tied

HUNTINGTON HOUSE

Eight-way hand tying is an age-old construction technique that has been passed down through generations of craftsmen and women. It is an art which takes time and patience. Steel bands are stretched under strips of webbing and are double nailed to the frame. This is the foundation for the spring chamber which adds incredible strength and eliminates the possibility of future sagging. Double cone coil springs are securely nailed to the hardwood frame, and then skilled craftsmen tie these springs by hand in eight different directions, from side to side, front to back and diagonally, which provides outstanding firm support and long-lasting comfort.
