Thanks all-

Chris, I have never used a panel; I will have to try that. I guess I am leery of using if for the first time on something important. Linda had also mentioned ABS panels and I tried to find some locally, but did not. I am going to read that link you posted again.

Michelle, maybe I have not been shown or learned how to do it right, but I am never happy with mine that I stretch - they are just not tight enough and I may not have enough patience. My husband does it for me and they are better, but still not perfect. Besides, waiting on him is torture. I agree I should learn to do this better. That's a goal I wrote down for this year as a matter of fact, but I am procrastinating.

Steven, whenever you have that information on an Austin company that does it I'd love to hear.

Thanks!
