Reupholstering an old Recliner into a Gaming Chair

I reupholstered an old recliner to a gaming chair. It was originally a Lane Comfort Queen recliner that a dog sat in for a number of years. I added speakers, new faux leather, and thicker foam. Still a few things to do: finish the front of the arms, add bluetoothe, and bass shakers. Thanks to my Brother, Becky, and Beno for all their help.
