DAVID A. CLEMEN: Okay, welcome back. Now that we have our panel together, we've already built our frame. We've pressed it. We are now ready to stretch the fabric over the actual frame. So, I'm going to lay the fabric on the table. I'm going to slide the frame out, okay? And then I'm just going to set the frame on top of it and see, by our measurements, we actually have plenty of fabric. And these less-than-expensive cottons are actually going to stretch a little bit once you get it on here. And so, I'm just going to kind of center it by eye, and this looks how I want my stripes on this piece. So, I actually can slide this down because I'm not going to need all these extra fabric. I just cut it the width of the factory edge, so I can come over here and I got enough to cover there, this will cover there, and this will cover there. So, on this end, I'm just going to cut, trim this off, and the scrap that I'm going to have actually I could use for something else or I can just use and just toss it, [SOUNDS LIKE] but I'll set that aside now. You want to use a smaller staple; I didn't mention that in the supplies, but you want to use like a really small staple for the staple gun. This actually, I believe, is a 3/8 but anyway. So basically, I usually start on the center, on the side, okay? And then I'll just do one staple. Move your finger all the way; you don't want to staple that, okay? Then the way that you stretch is you're going to the opposite side, now that I have this one here, and it is better if you have a bigger table where you can just kind of spin it, but we'll work with what we got. And get back to flat. Okay. Then, I want to pull this tight up against there. Let's get this out of the way. And then, once I get this, it's where now I had enough, and I got this one already started. Okay. And I want to take and pull this side tight, and you'll see it's puckering there, but as we go along, that will get worked out. So, I'm just going to do the center here and then I'm just gonna, instead of lifting it, I'm going to spin it. And I'm going to pull this. I'm going to go in the end and get the center here. And then, I'm going to spin it around and get the end here. And see, now that I've got three there and I pulled this one, this one is starting to tighten here. And so, this is the beginning of stretching the frame.
