Wind Screen / Back Cover

[Porritt, David]

Garret:

 

Your post reminded me of an instance in my early days in this business.
I had made some stereo speakers and I needed some grill cloth.  If
you've ever priced good grill cloth you know it's beyond the means of a
beginning tech.  I went to the fabric store and went around picking up
all the very light and thin fabrics and put a piece up to my ear.  When
I found one that didn't change the ambient sound I bought a couple of
yards.  Only later did I think about what the clerks and other customers
were thinking as I "listened" to all that fabric.

Dean,

We do not have a Joann store in our area. I have looked online but am
unable to discern what fabric to look for.  Do you have a brand, product
ID or name I can lookup?

Kindest Regards,

Garret

,,, Get black speaker cloth at Joann Fabric. They almost always have 40%
off sales going, usually you can get the coupon in a flyer at the front
of the store that is good for the following week. I usually buy the
whole bolt of whatever is left on the roll. It'll do several pianos.
