The cotton side should get glued to the wood with animal hide glue. Also, see note below for an alternative way to determine which side of the cloth is the cotton side and other tips.
Cotton Weave \\\\\\\ Cotton side is the inside.
Acrylic Weave |||||| Acrylic side is the outside. |
Another easy way to determine which side of the cloth is cotton is to put a drop of very hot water on a corner of the cloth. If the water soaks into the material, that's the cotton side. If the water beads and does not soak in, that's the acrylic side. Remember, when using a water soluble glue (animal hide glue), the cotton side gets glued to the wood. Also, refer to the diagram below for the recommended method to 'tack' the cloth at the overlap. Lastly, I recommend that tacks be used at all four corners to prevent leakage due to the material lifting at the bend.

Since "Player-Care" is an internet business, I prefer that we correspond via E-Mail (click here to fill out the 'Request Form'). However, if I'm not in the middle of some other activity, you can reach me at 732-840-8787. But please understand that during the hours from 8AM-5PM EST (Mon-Sat), I'm generally quite busy. So, I probably won't answer the phone. If you get the answering machine, please leave a detailed message stating the reason for your call. Also, repeat your name and phone number clearly and distinctly. By necessity, I prioritize everything in my life. And, if you call and just leave your name and number, and ask me to call you back, it might be a day or two before I return your call. Why? Because I don't know why you want me to call and I might not be prepared to assist you in an effective and efficient manner. If you leave me an E-Mail address (which I prefer), spell it out phonetically. The more you do to help me, the more I can help you in return. Don't rush. You have four minutes to record your message. |
