'playing with hog rings'

Hi guys,

In regard to the rings, i cant see why you couldnt use the fencing staple pliers used for joining/tieing your strands/wires onto your mesh. To me, they look almost exactly the same as the joints used on the seat base Cletrac' has shown. These pliers take about 1 second to put a ring like staple on.

If you do this, just bear inmind these staples usually have a pointy tip- might need a quick whack into the grinding wheel- could be a problem otherwise if it spins and rips your new cnavas.

Cheers,
Ian.
