Exactly what I'm doing.  I was going to check out the fake fur selection at=

a local esoteric fabric store today.  I'm curious what commonly available
materials you home-brewers use for the underlying hard skin.  (Did Walt
just mention something? - dang, I erased the email by accident :-(, along
with his comments on X-Y and M-S, Walt would you mind resending? Soo-r-rry=

)  The commercial zeps look like they're made from some kind of perforated=

metal or plastic, although I've yet to handle one.  Would window screening=

work?   Thinking of a light wood or wire frame to support it.  Just as a
starting point.
