<p>[QUOTE="CliffDK, post: 4497354, member: 77207"]Yes, it appears to be a really good system, the edges are rounded, firm, and supportive, and hold the horse hair nicely in the middle where it is needed. The whole solution is an absolute dust trap with clouds of yuk emitted at the slightest disturbance. I'd never seen it done this way before and wondered what era it was commonly used in. I've found very little literature on its use, other than 'marsh grass' occasionally being used in this way in very early American pieces[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
