Pieters,Don't bitch a whole lot, but I really gotta get this one out for venting and warningothers. This is my second time around using Poly Fiber system and am wellpleased except for the following: I ran out of cord (500 yds) from the firsttime and had to re-order (from AS & S) to finish this second project. I wasrocking right along almost enjoying the lacing until I received the re-orderof cord. It was ordered under the same part number at AS & S but when receivedit was much heavier cord and much waxier and only 296 yards. P/N 09-03800.Talk about difficult. It was twice as hard to use and took at least twiceas long to lace. I was so pissed I called PolyFiber and ask them about it. Thetech I talked to said that he was aware of the cord being heavier and saidthat it was all that was available. So, does anyone know of any other sourceof cord that I might replace what I am going to dispose of? I have finishedwith this project but will be doing more lacing in the future, I hope.DickG.Ft.
