The issue is obvious now - it's like trying to mold a sheet of paper from your printer to conform all the way around on the top/outside part of your template - ripples are un avoidable as a flat objec...

Thanks Paul for your response. I usually just choose one lace for the perimeter which lately has been French as the SFS does not last long at all. For a while it was always SFS all the way around - up...

I know this is a longshot but what are the chances of swimming one of those days bald, in between attachments? A bandana or hat on the way to the pool? Chlorine wreaks havoc on a piece. Just a thought
