upholstrey help

On top of the original springs was a burlap with small wires in the weave. That is what helped spread the load across several springs. I guess someone left it out.
Year One and others have it. I don't think installing it without removing the covering is possible.

Thanks for the reply...................I am willing to bet money that that wired burlap was not used when this was upholstered.
At this point I am going to take a lesson from Lazyboy. I am going to strech a rod across the bottom and tie off the springs to the rod. Not sure if I am going to do one or two. I guess if the first one works I will do the second one.
Kinda of trial by fire. I got some nylon-type heavy twine and it is fusible. I am going to clamp the twine with a hot crimper in hope it works.
