[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 464678, member: 12496"] I would suggest that the clamps are also best used on the crossbar. Sewn rod pockets are bad news. The rod pockets may seem convenient (they're not), but the rod sags a bit in the middle from the fabric weight, and this sag makes the fabric hang unevenly, causing uncorrectable wrinkles around that sagging center part. Whereas, if we simply throw several inches of fabric over the crossbar, and put a large clamp at each end, and another in the center, this allows us to easily adjust the fabric a bit higher in the center, so that it does hang straight with no wrinkles. A lot faster than the rod pocket too. I find these clamps to be extremely useful: [url=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004AZ38Z0/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004AZ38Z0&linkCode=as2&tag=16812-20]Amazon.com: Heavy Duty Muslin Clamps 4 1/2 inch 6 Pack: Camera & Photo[/url] [/QUOTE]
