I need to find out information on re-caning some ladder back kitchen chairs. They have rush bottoms that are starting to break and fray. I would appreciate any information or web sites that could teach me how.

Here are two web sites that offer both materials and instructions. They have everything you need for the job, plus books on just about any phase of furniture work (including caning) as well as other craft ideas.

Both sites offer a catalog that's free for the asking.
Have fun!
