Now the bun is free...
I took a photo showing this one on the bottom side just to show what it looked like.

next is the padding or decking layer.
This is a burlap pad with a layer of cotton sewn on top of it, with the listing channels left with the burlap exposed to make it easier to reach the listing rods when installing the covers.

This is an important layer as it helps protect the bottom of the foam bun from the movement of the springs. Later I'll show the materials i use to replicate this layer.

Under the padding / decking layer is a sheet of burlap w/ music wires woven through it.
This layer was designed to help stabilize the spring assembly a bit & spread the load across the springs- however I'm making the note that I don't like them.
I've found too many cases where the wires become brittle overtime, snap and poke through the bun and the cover.
Had it happen in a car in bought years back, so I don't put them back in seats I redo for that reason.
