Thinking back to my first fabric job. Got out all the stuff you're supposedto have ....razors, irons, glue, MEK, and my sharpest scissors.When I started to lay out the big pieces, and double checked to get itright, got out the special sharpest scissors in the house. What asupprise. Was using 1.7 oz. fabric, and it either wouldn't cut, or made astringy mess. Frustrating as hell.Couldn't believe the simple solution.Get a pair of the cheap "Singer" scissors ( about $4.00) at thesupermarket. The ones that hang above food height, with all the gadgets,along the top of the aisles. Stamped flat steel, with the plastichandles.Use them for fabric, and only for fabric, and they will work like a dream.walt evansps when it comes to covering, get the Poly Fibre manual from AS&S (orwhoever) for about $10.00. If you haven't covered before, it's the best$10.00 you'll spend.________________________________________________________________________________
