[Healeys] BT7 arm rest

[John Snyder]

I position the arm rest on the carpet, mark the outline w/ chalk, and take 
the carpet & arm rest to a person w/ a "walking foot" sewing machine.  She 
makes boat covers and canvas things for boats.  This machine runs a seam on 
the little flange at the base of the arm rest.  Works great.
