10/1/2019 UPDATE:
The company that provided the platform and hosted my Chair Caning Forum has closed and is no longer providing the hosting service.
So, after 15 years of serving the chair caning community with my forum, I had to close it.
However, The SeatWeavers’ Guild, Inc® has begun a seat weaving public forum that you are welcome to participate in.
Do you cane chairs as a hobby or maybe as a part-time or full-time business? Are you self-employed working from home all by yourself?
Have you ever felt alone and needed others to talk with about the art/craft of chair caning and other types of chair seat weaving?
Well then, join us on the Seatweaving, Chair Caning & Wicker Repair Forum (Chair Caning Forum) where you can ask questions, help someone else with their problem or just plain lurk, listen and learn!
The chair caning forum has been online since 2004, and we share our expertise with others in the field. We currently have about 145 members, from beginning weavers to seasoned professionals.
We encourage all new weavers to join this forum and the movement to promote and preserve this nearly lost art.
We want to make sure the next generation will benefit from our heritage preservation efforts and appreciate this fine antique furniture of the past.
Welcome, all you fellow chair caners! Register today and start conversing with friends! Hope to “see” you in the forum soon!

Happy Weaving, until next time!
Greetings!
Is there still an active seat weaving forum somewhere for beginning caners?
Andy,
Did you click on the link in the post for The SeatWeavers’ Guild forum? It’s not real active but is the only one online anymore with the exception of their Facebook Group, which you can access if you are a guild member and are on Facebook.
Here’s the TSWG link again for you. The SeatWeavers’ Guild Forum
