[pct-l] where to get fabric?



Shawnie,

I used the Rawhide mesh netting ($5.75)with 1/4" holes for mine and it
works well. I think the poly($3.90) or rawhide($10.61) 1/8" would work
fine too. http://www.owfinc.com/Fabrics/mesh&netting.asp

They have a sample pack of all their fabrics (I just got mine out to
confirm the mesh) which I found really useful for only $6. It has helped
me decide a few times.

Contact me offlist if you want more details.
