I've Been So Dumb

Postby CallMeLegend » Wed 09.09.2020, 08:32

Been replacing the roof elastics on Missy & turns out I was making a right meal of it.

I was starting at the front, then attaching the next hoop to the elastic, then the next, then the rear frame, swearing that the tensions were not even & that the hoops looked all misaligned.

Why am I so stupid, it's obvious not I realised, attach the header & the rear frame first, stretching over the hoops, mark the elastic at the hoops the attach, that way the elastic is an even tension. DOH :bonk:
